About Emirates
Emirates, based in United Arab Emirates, operates under the ICAO code UAE and the IATA code EK; its radio callsign is "Emirates". On this page you can follow Emirates flights and find the airports it serves.
How to read a Emirates flight number
Every Emirates flight number starts with EK, followed by up to four digits: that is the number on your booking confirmation and boarding pass. In flight plans the same flight carries the ICAO prefix UAE, and controllers address it as "Emirates". One thing to watch: codeshares. A ticket sold by another airline can be operated by Emirates and vice versa; live tracking follows the operating carrier's number, so if your search comes up empty, check the "operated by" line on your booking.

Frequently asked questions about Emirates
Where is my Emirates flight right now?
Search the flight number (EK plus digits) in the search box on this page. If the aircraft is airborne within receiver coverage, you will see its live status; before departure you will see the route.
Is my Emirates flight delayed or cancelled?
Check the flight number on this page for live status, but for rebooking, gate changes and cancellations the airline itself remains the authoritative source.
What do EK and UAE mean on Emirates flights?
They are two prefixes for the same airline. EK is the IATA code you see on tickets; UAE is the ICAO code used in flight plans and by air traffic control.
Does Emirates operate flights for other airlines?
Codeshare agreements mean a flight sold under another carrier's number may be operated by Emirates, and the reverse. Live tracking always follows the operating carrier's flight number; check the "operated by" line on your booking.
