People please understand the below facts from a fuel expert:
1- Dubai is tax free? Yes, for Emirates and all airlines. So other major airlines bad luck. Deal with your governments not with Emirates airlines, your nagging will not force Dubai government to impose taxes on other airlines.
2- Emirates gets fuel subsidy? No, the previous article from jet fuel marketers in dubai airport proves that. Any auditor who knows the oil prices can confirm that from checking the financial statement.
3- Owning a refinery does not make you get lower prices for fuel. It is a totally different industry which has its own risks. Good luck delta!

Emirates did not excel because of subsidies. The service, the convenience, the innovation, etc etc all made Emirates grab their passengers from other airlines, That's why it can be profitable why others struggle to survive.
