Emirates celebrates 3 decades of partnership with Dilmah Tea

Emirates and Dilmah Tea have enjoyed a longstanding partnership of brewing fine teas on board and in Emirates’ airport lounges around the world for the past 30 years.

All Emirates’ customers were presented with a special tea box when they flew from Dubai on International Tea Day, observed recently, said a press release.

The special tea pack for all customers contained three different flavours: Ceylon Breakfast, an Emirates exclusive Turmeric Coconut and Vanilla, and the popular Earl Grey with Honey.

"Emirates focuses on dishes that emphasise fresh ingredients of the highest quality. We pay special attention to every detail and the quality of the tea we offer our customers is no different. The fact that we have served Dilmah Tea for 30 years across all our cabins is proof of its quality and our satisfaction with the perfect cup of tea,” said Thomas Ney, DSVP and service delivery of Emirates.

The teas offered on Emirates are chosen by popularity amongst customers, catering to different preferences like minty or citrus infusions as well as by looking at tea-drinking trends.

Besides, with an increasing focus on wellness amongst customers, the airline recently introduced a new tea in its airport lounges – Turmeric, coconut and vanilla featuring antioxidant properties.
