Emirates, the national airline of the United Arab Emirates, has enjoyed steady growth since it was launched in 1985. Now, it is launching routes to North and South America. It has placed ambitious orders for new aircrafts, including the A380. Since being founded by the government of Dubai in the 1980s, Emirates' growth has come in parallel with the rise of the UAE as a key trading center in the Middle East as well as the development of Dubai as a major tourist destination. It has also exploited its geographical position along major east-west air routes, and 50% of the airline's passengers are in transit beyond Dubai. The attraction of Dubai as a stop-over makes transit/transfer strategy viable. Today, the airline has established itself as a well-managed and successful international airline.
