(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) Emirates, one of the world's fastest-growing airlines, will serve Amsterdam with a second daily non-stop flight from December 4.
The airline's Boeing 777-200LR aircraft will add capacity of more than 3,700 seats a week in both directions.
This Eid, be on time
DUBAI - With a large number of UAE residents expected to travel abroad this Eid Al Fitr, Emirates is reminding its customers of key time checks for on-time departures at Terminal 3 of Dubai International Airport.
Emirates check-in counters open three hours before flight departure. Customers are encouraged to be at the airport as early as possible, and plan for extra time to account for heavy passenger traffic during the Eid holidays.
The new daily service will complement Emirates' popular Airbus A380 flight to Amsterdam, which commenced last August, less than two years after the launch of the route with a Boeing 777.
The second service will feature 266 seats in a three-class configuration - eight seats in first class, 42 in business class and 216 in economy class.
Flight EK149 will leave Dubai at 4:10pm to reach Amsterdam at 8:40pm. The return flight, EK150, will depart Amsterdam at 10:10pm and will arrive in Dubai at 7:40am the next day. All times are local.
"Our decision to add another daily service to Amsterdam is a direct result of a surge in customer demand. The enhanced capacity and schedule will offer our customers more choice when travelling between Amsterdam and Dubai and onwards to a multitude of destinations in the Indian subcontinent, Africa, Far East and Australasia," said Hubert Frach, divisional senior vice-president for Commercial Operations West.
