Emirates has been named the best airline in the world by both Skytrax and TripAdvisor, and it’s not hard to see why. Not only does Emirates have one of the most comfortable flights in the world, but it also has several other perks that make flying on its airlines truly unique, including its special meals, cabin amenities, and economy class seating.
