Emirates announces A380 flights to Toronto, Bangkok

Emirates has announced that it will deploy the Airbus A380 on flights to Toronto and Bangkok from Dubai this year.

The new services will get underway on June 1st and will represent a capacity increase of about 30 per cent on both routes.

Canada will be hosting the A380 for the first time, while the service to Thailand will see the aircraft's presence in the Asia Pacific region expanded following Emirates' recent launch of flights to Sydney and Auckland.

Tim Clark, president of the airline, said: "We are extremely pleased to announce the introduction of the A380 for our Toronto and Bangkok services. Our Toronto route has had consistently high demand since the thrice-weekly service was launched two years ago.

"The A380 will allow Emirates to address some of the unmet need in Toronto, while in Bangkok the A380 will help support the Thai government's new tourism initiatives."

Emirates recently unveiled 'e-zone', a new technology and entertainment area in its business class lounge in Dubai.
