Emirates to Broadcast FIFA World Cup 26 Matches Onboard

FIFA World Cup Coverage Available Across Emirates Flights

Emirates will broadcast every FIFA World Cup 26 match onboard its flights through Sport 24, the airline’s dedicated live sports channel available on its ice inflight entertainment system.

From the tournament’s opening ceremony in Mexico to the final in the United States on 19 July, passengers travelling on eligible Emirates flights will be able to follow the action live while in the air.

The airline said Sport 24 on ice will carry the full schedule of FIFA World Cup 26 matches, allowing travellers to keep up with the tournament throughout their journey. Passengers can also find the complete live broadcast schedule in the June edition of the ice magazine, helping them plan their travel around key fixtures.

In addition to onboard viewing, selected FIFA World Cup 26™ matches will be shown in Emirates Lounges in Dubai, where operationally possible.
