Emirates will operate its state-of-the-art Airbus A350 on daily flights to Hangzhou, China, starting 26 October 2025, marking a significant upgrade to its service on the route just three months after its launch.
Flight EK310 will depart Dubai at 04:15hrs, arriving in Hangzhou at 16:00hrs, with the return flight EK311 leaving Hangzhou at 00:10hrs and landing in Dubai at 06:10hrs. The move reinforces Emirates’ commitment to enhancing travel experiences to its newest Chinese destination.
Adnan Kazim, Emirates’ Deputy President and Chief Commercial Officer, highlighted the strategic expansion, noting that the A350 adds a “new dynamic” to the airline’s operations in China while offering passengers the latest in comfort and technology.
The A350 is the first new aircraft to join Emirates’ fleet since 2008, complementing its Boeing 777s and A380s. Featuring wider aisles, higher ceilings, advanced inflight entertainment, and seamless technology touchpoints, the aircraft aims to elevate the passenger experience across all classes.
Notably, Emirates will introduce Premium Economy to Hangzhou with the A350. The cabin offers leather reclining seats with full leg rests, in-seat charging, 13.3-inch screens, amenity kits, and a signature Chandon Vintage Brut 2017 sparkling wine, bridging luxury and accessibility for travellers.
Configured in three classes, the aircraft provides 312 seats: 32 Business Class, 21 Premium Economy, and 259 Economy Class seats, reflecting Emirates’ focus on comfort, innovation, and service excellence for passengers flying to and from China.
