Emirates Extends US Open Partnership for 14th Year
Emirates is returning as the Official Airline of the US Open Grand Slam tournament for the 14th consecutive year, continuing its partnership with the sport and its fans.
This year, the airline will offer hospitality, interactive activities, tailored onboard menus and entertainment, as well as community-focused initiatives through its ‘Force for Good’ programme.
From 24 August to 7 September, Emirates will once again open its 1,358-square-foot hospitality suite at Arthur Ashe Stadium, providing views of the court and dining experiences for invited guests throughout the tournament.
Community engagement
On 23 August, Emirates cabin crew, staff, and mascots will take part in Arthur Ashe Kids’ Day by meeting children, sharing activity packs, and creating memories with Polaroid photos.
As part of the ‘Force for Good’ programme with the USTA Foundation, Emirates will also host a tennis clinic on 26 August for children from the Kings County Tennis League, with support from players Sloane Stephens and John Isner. The initiative aims to widen access to tennis facilities and coaching, with projects already completed in Brooklyn, New York, and East Palo Alto, California.
Onboard experience
Fans travelling with Emirates can watch live US Open matches on Sport 24, available on more than 1,000 flights weekly. Key matches will also be shown on the A380 Onboard Lounge screen, alongside a selection of 50 tennis films and documentaries. Passengers on selected routes to the US will be offered US Open-inspired menus and the tournament’s signature cocktail.

Through Emirates Skywards, members can redeem Miles for tickets to major sporting events, including all four Grand Slams. Over 20 million Miles have been redeemed for US Open access, including a record 744,000 Miles bid for a pair of Men’s Final courtside seats.
