When it comes to regional aviation leaders, it is tough to see past Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum. Sheikh Ahmed led Dubai carrier Emirates’ resurgence in the wake of the pandemic. The airline inked agreements and launched initiatives to support tourism to several destinations including Spain, Maldives and Saudi Arabia, as well as transported 600 million doses of Covid-19 vaccines on its flights to over 80 destinations by December. Sheikh Ahmed is also the chairman of Dubai Airports and Dubai Civil Aviation Authority. Meanwhile, as chairman of Dubai-based lender Emirates NBD, he oversaw the bank post Dhs9.3bn in net profit in 2021, surging 34 per cent over the previous year.
