Emirates is adding tools to help the airline prevent incidents of extreme turbulence, after two high-profile mishaps on other carriers left one dead and dozens injured.
The world’s largest long-haul airline is joining the International Air Transport Association’s information-sharing platform that helps pilots fly around turbulent areas. Emirates is also providing pilots with the latest version of a mobile navigation system made by Germany’s Deutsche Lufthansa AG.
