Dubai-based airline Emirates is gearing up for a bustling travel season during Eid Al Fitr, adding 17 extra flights across the Middle East and GCC from March 26 to April 6.
The move aims to accommodate over 371,000 expected travelers, offering enhanced connectivity for those reuniting with family or exploring new destinations.
The expanded schedule includes six additional flights to Amman, five to Dammam, four to Jeddah, and two to Kuwait. These routes provide greater flexibility for travelers heading to Dubai, an increasingly popular Eid getaway, or connecting onward to sought-after destinations such as Bangkok, Phuket, London, various U.S. cities, South Africa, Mumbai, Karachi, and Cairo.
Emirates is also enhancing the festive experience with a special Eid menu across all cabin classes on select flights to and from Dubai. Passengers can savor regional delicacies like chicken madhbi, prawn matfi, and lamb kofta, alongside sweet treats like pistachio cake and halwa brownies.
To elevate in-flight entertainment, Emirates’ ice system will feature over 6,500 channels, including 2,000 international movies and 80 Arabic films, alongside popular Arabic TV series, documentaries, and a diverse music selection.
With expanded services and tailored festive offerings, Emirates continues to ensure a seamless and enriched travel experience for passengers during the holiday season.
