Emirates’ crew spread festive joy and distribute traditional sweet treats and confections under the twinkling festive lights of Bur Dubai.

Emirates’ Cabin Crew gave out hundreds of decorated boxes of sweets in Meena Bazaar, a popular area in Dubai known for its ethnic shops and bustling streets where many people shop for their traditional Diwali essentials. The crew members also helped create a traditional Rangoli to celebrate the festival of lights.
