Emirates to Boost Flights Connecting Heathrow and Dubai

Emirates is set to enhance flight options connecting London Heathrow and Dubai during the upcoming winter season to cater to heightened market demand.

The renowned Dubai-based airline intends to introduce an additional "temporary" service operating five times a week between Heathrow and Dubai from October 31 to March 30, 2024.

This supplementary service is scheduled for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. It will complement Emirates' existing robust schedule of six daily A380 flights between Heathrow and Dubai. For this new route, Emirates plans to deploy a Boeing 777-300ER aircraft, equipped with first, business, and economy-class cabins.

Emirates is making concerted efforts to expand capacity on various routes within the UK. This includes the revival of daily A380 services to both Birmingham and Glasgow, along with the provision of double-daily flights to Stansted and a bolstered service frequency to Newcastle.
