New Flights to Tunis Offered from Emirates

Emirates Flights

Emirates have revealed that they are to offer new flights to the capital of Tunisia as part of their expansion plans. Offering the route from the popular holiday destination of Dubai, the flights to Tunis will expand the Emirates network and allow passengers even greater choice when making connections around the world.

Tunisia is fast becoming a top holiday spot for British travellers, with flights often having to be routed through Rome or Milan. From 30th October, Emirates will offer the two new flights for the Dubai to Tunis route, increasing the total number of services, every week, to six.

Operating the route aboard an A330-200, three classes are available on the Emirates flights including 183 Economy Class seats, 42 Business Class seats and 12 First Class seats with luxurious features. The new additions to the weekly schedule will provide an extra 3,800 monthly seats, allowing for a huge increase in capacity for those wanting travel to Tunisia.

Emirates' senior vice president of African commercial operations, Jean Luc Grillet, said "Tunis is a significant market for Emirates and these additional flights are a testament to our growing presence in the market since we began operations to Tunisia five years ago."
