Emirates will return as the Official Airline Partner at the US Open for the 14th consecutive year, enhancing fan experiences both on and off the court. The airline’s involvement in this year’s tournament, running from August 24 to September 7, includes premium hospitality offerings, interactive activities, special onboard menus and entertainment options, and expanded community outreach through its ‘Force for Good’ initiative.

The Emirates luxury hospitality suite at Arthur Ashe Stadium will be open throughout the two-week championship. At 1,358 square feet, it is one of the largest suites at the event and offers guests premium dining options, exclusive beverages, and views of live tennis action.

As part of its community engagement efforts, Emirates staff and mascots will participate in Arthur Ashe Kids’ Day on August 23 by meeting children attending the event. Activities include distributing toys and explorer bags and taking Polaroid photos in limited-edition US Open frames.

On August 26, Emirates will host a tennis clinic for children from the Kings County Tennis League at Arthur Ashe Stadium. Tennis legends Sloane Stephens and John Isner are scheduled to provide lessons during this clinic. According to Emirates, “Emirates’ Force for Good programme was launched in partnership with the USTA Foundation in 2024 with the shared goal of empowering youth and expanding access to safe, high-quality tennis facilities.” The program has already contributed new tennis courts to communities in Brooklyn, New York and East Palo Alto, California.

Children who benefited from these initiatives—specifically those from King’s County Tennis League who used new facilities at De Hostos Playground—will receive instruction during the clinic. Later that day some students and their guardians will be hosted in Emirates’ hospitality suite while others attend matches from promenade seats.

For fans traveling during the tournament period, Emirates’ ice entertainment system will broadcast live US Open matches via Sport 24 on over 1,000 flights per week globally. Major finals can also be viewed on large screens in the A380 Onboard Lounge. Passengers have access to an additional selection of tennis films and documentaries across multiple channels.

Passengers flying between Dubai and select U.S. destinations can enjoy special US Open-inspired menus as well as signature cocktails such as GREY GOOSE Honey Deuce.

Emirates Skywards members are offered further incentives through Skywards Exclusives. Members may use or bid miles for tickets to major sporting events including all four Grand Slam tournaments. To date more than 20 million Miles have been redeemed for US Open tickets; a record bid reached 744,000 Miles for a pair of Men’s Final – Courtside Seats tickets.
