Emirates Skywards Platinum Auction: Exclusive Memberships for a Noble Cause
Emirates Launches Groundbreaking Charity Auction
Running from 17 December 2025 until 17 January 2026, bids can be made for special membership numbers with Platinum tier status benefits. In an innovative approach to charitable fundraising, Emirates has partnered with Emirates Auction to offer a chance to secure some of the most coveted Emirates Skywards Platinum memberships — complete with tier benefits valid for up to 20 years. This unprecedented auction represents a unique opportunity for travellers to access the airline’s highest loyalty tier whilst supporting vulnerable children worldwide.
Exclusive Membership Numbers and Premium Benefits
Seven exclusive Skywards membership numbers are available, including 2111111111, 7000000000, and 7777777770, among others. The auction starts at AED70,000 and is open to bidders worldwide. Winners will gain access to an extensive range of privileges, including complimentary home check-in in Dubai, priority First Class airport check-in, lounge access for themselves and their guests, 100 per cent bonus Skywards Miles on every Emirates and flydubai flight and the ability to extend Gold tier status to a spouse, partner or friend. The validity of the Platinum membership period depends on the winning bid amount, Emirates confirmed.
Supporting Global Children’s Welfare Initiatives
All proceeds from the auction will benefit the Emirates Airline Foundation’s humanitarian work. Funds raised will support 14 NGOs across nine countries, delivering initiatives that range from housing, nutrition, and healthcare to education and vocational programs for children in India, Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Kenya, the Philippines, Brazil, UAE, and Bangladesh. Sir Tim Clark, President of Emirates Airline, emphasised that “Every bid represents more than a Skywards Platinum membership; it’s a contribution that creates pathways to lift children and their families out of poverty.”
