Emirates has operated its first flight with a fully-vaccinated frontline team servicing customers at every touchpoint of the travel journey.

The full airport and onboard customer experience for flight EK215, which departed Dubai at 08:30 for Los Angeles, was safely supported by check-in, security, business and first-class lounge and boarding gate employees, as well as engineers, pilots and cabin crew who made the choice to be fully vaccinated.

Also supporting the operation were fully vaccinated aircraft appearance, loading and special handling teams from dnata, as well as Emirates SkyCargo teams working on the cargo and logistics requirements for EK215.
