2. Strengths
As a competitive and globally recognised airline industry, Emirates Airlinehas
been able to have strategic position in the global market. In fact, when
Emirates Airlines treamlined their business, it already had the advantage of size. With
several consecutive years
of multibillion profits, the company has outshined its major rival companies to become a
modelfirm. Also, Emirates Airline’s decision to focus on diversified market and
by considering andentering the cargo shipping and their customer service was a
courageous one, but it has led to itscurrent position as one of the top global
brands. The firm has likewise been characterized bymany analysts to have an
ability to adapt to changing market conditions in order to maximize profit.
Listening to and identifying with consumers has allowed Emirates Airline to construct
acorporate culture that bears little resemblance to the Emirates Airline of the past.The
ability to continuously renew and improve their service in the airline and
aviationwhile effectively managing the needs of their target audience is the key to
maintaining EmiratesAirline’s leader status and the key for succeeding in having
strategic position.
Weaknesses.

considered as one of the flaws or weaknesses of the company. Analysts have
accused the company of focusing too much on their high-end acquisitions and
diversification in spite of therisky effects of such decisions.

growth markets where internet adoption still has room to go, Leveraging Emirates
Airline’s infrastructure business to get first choice and stronger position
against rivals is also an opportunity.

should be the case since the said market is a potential sizeable s o u r c e o f
i n c o m e . T h e t r e n d o f c o n s i d e r i n g t h e i n t e r n e t m a r k e t a l s o s h o w s
c a s e s n e w opportunities for the company.

3. Threats
Rival companies are major threats to the business. Emirates Airline, in contrast,started
out in other lines of business and entered and airline capabilities of the
company.
Thefirm’s inability to keep up with innovations, or recognize its demand, creates a threat
for them, arisk that they could be displaced by other industry leaders.

potentially affect the business negatively.
