Emirates has disclosed the additional seven cities that will be serviced by its A350 fleet, as new planes equipped with the carrier’s latest interior upgrades commence regular operations.
As part of their recent plans for deploying new Emirates A350 aircraft, the airline is broadening its roster of short- to medium-haul routes across the Middle East/GCC region and Europe. This expansion marks the inaugural flights of the Emirates A350 into both Africa and Southeast Asia.
Adnan Kazim, the Deputy President and Chief Commercial Officer at Emirates Airlines, stated: "By strategically expanding our fleet of A350s into various regions including the Middle East/GCC, Europe, Africa, and Southeast Asia, we capitalize on the plane's operational versatility and efficiency. This initiative allows us to provide enhanced premium travel choices for an increased number of passengers, giving them access to our cutting-edge interior designs such as upgraded Business Class and Premium Economy seats, complemented by numerous considerate details across all cabins. These enhancements are now accessible in a greater number of destinations compared to previous years."
He stated, "By introducing this aircraft and integrating it into our current flight schedules, Emirates aims to sustain its strong competitive edge. We remain the preferred choice for travelers seeking exclusive connection possibilities and superior onboard experiences that cannot be matched by any other airline."
The airline’s newest A350 aircraft will begin their planned flights to the following locations:
- Emirates will run the A350 service five times a week to Tunis via flights EK 747/748 starting from June 1st, with operations occurring every day except Tuesdays. *
