Emirates today received its 123rd Airbus A380 superjumbo.

The new aircraft, registered A6-EVS, is the latest to join the fleet of this model, marking another milestone in Emirates' unwavering commitment to the 21-year program.

Emirates airline's delivery of a new aircraft amid an unprecedented global pandemic is a new confirmation of its optimism for the recovery of the industry and the return of strong demand for travel.

Emirates was the first airline to place an order for the A380 at the 2000 Farnborough Air Show when the aircraft was still being marketed as the A3XX.

This was followed by enhanced commitment and an order for 15 more aircraft at the 2001 Dubai Airshow, in a bold move just a few weeks after the events of September 11, which posed an unprecedented challenge to the global industry.
