Emirates offering a third flight to Dubai

Emirates has announced that it is to offer a third flight between Dubai and London Heathrow aboard its A380, providing travellers with more choice. From 24th January 2012, the airline will provide the superjumbo on three of its five daily services, allowing passengers to enjoy optimum luxury.

Currently Emirates operates two services with the A380 and another three flights aboard its Boeing 777. From January, flight EK 029 and EK 030 aboard the 777 will be replaced with an A380 service, offering those travelling in premium classes to enjoy upgraded services.

Emirates A380 offers 14 First Class Private Suites on its upper deck, all including flat beds and electronic doors. Meanwhile, 76 Business Class fares all have fully flat seats and aisle access, with all premium passengers able to enjoy onboard lounges for canapés and drinks.

Talking of the decision to upgrade the route, Emirates senior vice president and commercial operations manager for Europe and Russian Federation services, Salem Obaidalla, said "Given the popularity of Emirates' A380s, I know this news will be well received by our customers flying between London Heathrow, Dubai and beyond. As these magnificent aircraft continue to join our fleet, we can offer more seats and choice in and out of high density points, while enabling a greater number of passengers to benefit from the Emirates' A380 experience." The news is certain to be attractive to business travellers and premium passengers wanting the optimum comfort on flights between these two popular cities.
