Emirates ramps up

Emirates boosted ASK (available seat km) by 31% over the last year and has further plans to increase seat capacity from March 26, enhancing connectivity to Africa, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and East Asia.

“From July 2022 onwards, it’s been non-stop expansion,” says Adnan Kazim, Emirates CCO.

“So far, four of our A380 aircraft have been completely refurbished with our new cabin interiors and premium economy seats, and more will enter service as our US$2bn (R36,55bn) cabin and service enhancement programme picks up pace.” 

Emirates continues to scale up its Airbus A380 operations as well, with the reintroduction of the aircraft across its network: Glasgow (from March 26), Casablanca (from April 15), Beijing (from May 1), Shanghai (from June 4), Nice (from June 1), Birmingham (from July 1), Kuala Lumpur (from August 1), and Taipei (from August 1).
