Emirates has won the Best International Airline Online trophy for the second year running at the Australian National Travel Industry Awards for Excellence, the airline said.

The award honours the best international airline serving Australia directly, in comparison to offline airline operators serving the country.

The awards are hosted by the Australian Federation of Travel Agents Ltd (AFTA), the representative body for Australia's travel agents. More than 860 travel industry guests attended the event in Sydney.

Maltese travellers to Australia have a choice of 49 flights every week - double dailies to Sydney, Melbourne and Perth and a daily to Brisbane.

Besides countries in the Middle East, Africa and Europe, Emirates connects Australians to Singapore and Bangkok and across the Trans-Tasman to Auckland and Christchurch.
