Emirates expects '100 per cent' network return in coming days

Dubai's Emirates Airline said it expects to return to 100 per cent of its network in the coming days subject to "airspace availability" and "operational requirements".

In a statement to ARN News, an Emirates spokesperson said, "Following the partial re-opening of regional airspace, Emirates is operating a reduced flight schedule while working to restore full network operations."

On Thursday, March 5, Emirates carried approximately 30,000 passengers out of Dubai.

By Saturday, March 7, Emirates will have 106 return daily flights operating to 83 destinations, representing almost 60 per cent of its route network.

In the UK, the airline will be operating 11 daily flights across five airports by March 7, reflecting the strength of travel demand between the UAE and UK.

Additional capacity is being deployed across India, with Emirates scaling up to 22 daily flights, serving all nine of its Indian gateways by March 7.

In the US, Emirates is currently operating to seven of its American gateways, ensuring continued connectivity between the US and the UAE during this period.

Emirates has urged all customers to check availability and bookings on their website and social media channels where updates will be published.
