Emirates Integrates Crypto.com Pay for Flight Bookings

Emirates has integrated Crypto.com Pay as a payment option on its website and mobile app. This allows eligible UAE residents to pay for flight bookings using their digital assets, settling transactions in UAE dirhams (AED).

The service supports bookings priced and settled in AED, marking the rollout of a partnership between Emirates and Crypto.com announced in July 2025.

Adnan Kazim, Emirates' Deputy President and Chief Commercial Officer, said that introducing crypto payments is aimed at giving customers more payment choices while catering to digitally savvy travelers. This move reflects the rapidly evolving preferences of younger, digitally fluent generations who manage their money and plan their journeys primarily from their phones.
