Emirates Airline is back in profit for the first time since the start of the pandemic.

That’s according to the airline’s President Sir Tim Clark, who spoke to Dubai Eye 103.8's The Business Breakfast on the sidelines of the Dubai Airshow.

He said that Emirates has begun making money over the past couple of weeks.

Clark added that demand is so strong that Emirates would like to have its entire fleet of A380s back in the air - but said "the only reason we’re not is we can’t get the pilots".
