(PRESS RELEASE) DUBAI, UAE, 2025-Apr-4 — /Travel PR News/ — Emirates has officially unveiled Emirates Courier Express, an end-to-end delivery solution designed to reinvent the express shipping experience. Drawing on nearly four decades of global logistics expertise, the new service leverages Emirates’ fleet of more than 250 widebody aircraft, its extensive global network, and a reliable partner system to offer fast, flexible, and fully integrated door-to-door package delivery.
Emirates Courier Express was developed through close collaboration with global customers who piloted and refined the service, ensuring it meets the needs of businesses of all sizes. Over the past year, thousands of packages from the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, South Africa, and the UK were delivered with an average transit time of less than 48 hours. Now fully launched, the service offers different shipping tiers ranging from next-day urgent delivery to a two-day Premium option.
Badr Abbas, Divisional Senior Vice President of Emirates SkyCargo, explained, “Emirates Courier Express represents a transformation in global goods movement. By reimagining traditional logistics with our world-class infrastructure, we have set a new benchmark for speed, efficiency, and reliability in the express delivery sector. This innovative service is just the start of our ongoing efforts to lead the industry.”
Unlike the traditional hub-and-spoke model for cross-border delivery, Emirates Courier Express provides direct, non-stop connectivity from origin to destination. This streamlined approach minimizes handling, reduces transit time, and offers customers a competitive edge in getting their goods delivered quickly and safely. At launch, the service is available in seven markets, with plans for unlimited expansion wherever Emirates flies.
The integration of this service into Emirates’ established freight and logistics operations enables it to manage seasonal volume fluctuations while maintaining cost stability. Customers benefit from bespoke shipping solutions for a variety of products—from fashion items and mobile phones to critical medical equipment—with specialized handling such as cool chain capacity for sensitive goods.
Emirates Courier Express is entirely digital, featuring a custom-built technology platform that integrates with customer systems, provides real-time tracking and updates, and ensures transparency from collection to delivery across the globe.
Dennis Lister, Senior Vice President of Product and Innovation at Emirates SkyCargo, commented, “We challenged ourselves to find a better way to handle the increasing volumes of cross-border shipping. Our new service is a direct response to that challenge, delivering faster, more efficient, and cost-effective solutions for our customers.”
