Emirates, the world’s largest international airline and the official main partner of Real Madrid, helped the iconic football club take to the skies in style and “fly better” from Madrid to the Saudi capital on a specially planned charter flight, ahead of the Spanish Super Cup semifinal match on Jan. 11.
Onboard the special charter flight, Nacho Fernández, Eduardo Camavinga, Vini Jr., Luka Modric and other star players experienced “bespoke inflight services to rest and recharge ahead of the match,” the airline said.
A customized menu for the club featured creative culinary delights inspired by their trip. Specially branded touchpoints and meticulous attention to detail rounded off the experience on the flight. The players were also spoilt for choice as they browsed their favorite shows, movies and music on Emirates’ ice inflight entertainment system.
Emirates has been supporting Real Madrid as its official partner since 2011, joining up fan experiences with the club to reach its massive fanbase of more than 500 million loyal followers around the world. The airline has helped connect Real Madrid on special flights for numerous tours, including sporting events staged in Saudi Arabia.
The airline will continue as the official main airline partner of Real Madrid until 2026, making it the longest shirt sponsorship in the history of LaLiga.
