Schoolbags Made from Aircraft Seats Give New Hope to Kids in Zambia | Aircrafted KIDS by Emirates

Aircrafted KIDS by Emirates is breathing new life into our aircraft seats, by upcycling them into schoolbags and donating them to children in need all around the world. Our next stop takes us to Zambia, where the Kucetekela Foundation and Alliance for Children Everywhere (ACE) serve local communities by creating a nurturing and inspirational space for financially disadvantaged youths. With a longstanding legacy of supporting youth, and a particular focus on education, Emirates aims to support both organisations’ students with their schooling by providing practical, stylish backpacks and stationery. The initiative reinforces the airline’s commitment to ‘connecting communities’ by building enduring relationships and making meaningful differences in the destinations it serves. From retired seats to functional backpacks, see the transformation that's making a difference in the lives of these young students, and helping build a brighter future for their communities.
