Emirates Airline, the largest international carrier in the world and a prominent supporter of tennis, has unveiled an exciting new livery for its Airbus A380 aircraft.
This initiative reaffirms the airline’s strong commitment to tennis, as it sponsors all four Grand Slam tournaments, proudly supporting the Australian Open, the US Open, Roland Garros, and Wimbledon.
The new livery features a harmonious blend of tennis-inspired elements, showcasing the logo of each tournament framed within a tennis ball graphic, executed in their official colors. The design includes vibrant blue from the Australian Open’s “Green Set” court, the bold earthy red of Roland Garros, the iconic green and purple of Wimbledon, and the striking yellow and blue of the US Open, creatively reflecting the identity of each event.
Aviation enthusiasts and tennis fans will have the opportunity to see Emirates’ special livery flying over major cities such as Houston and Sao Paulo, carrying with it the fundamental values of tennis, including sportsmanship, discipline, and resilience, across the globe.
This distinctive livery is set to remain in the Emirates fleet for the next six years, with the inaugural flight showcasing this unique design landing in Melbourne, Australia, coinciding with the start of the year’s first Grand Slam tournament.
Emirates’ extensive portfolio of global sports and cultural partnerships underscores its dedication to connecting millions of people worldwide through shared passions and world-class experiences. Its tennis sponsorship portfolio includes several top events on the ATP and WTA tours, such as the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships and all four Grand Slam tournaments.
Moreover, Emirates’ sports partnerships extend beyond tennis, encompassing horse racing through the Dubai World Cup and Godolphin Racing; golf with the DP World Tour; cricket across all major International Cricket Council tournaments, the Elite Panel of Umpires, and Lancashire County Cricket Club; sailing with Emirates Team New Zealand, SailGP, and Emirates Team Britain; basketball through the NBA and clubs like Real Madrid and Beirut Basketball Club; cycling with the Emirates cycling team; and Australian Rules Football with the Collingwood Football Club.
The iconic “fly better” logo also appears on the jerseys of leading global football clubs, such as Arsenal, Real Madrid, AC Milan, Benfica, and Olympique Lyon. Additionally, Emirates has been a platinum partner of Bayern Munich’s first team and has held the title of official sponsor of the FA Cup for nearly a decade. Domestically, the airline supports the UAE Pro League and features its branding on Al Ain Football Club’s training kits for the 2025/2026 season.
