Emirates will be expanding its schedules across the region for the upcoming Eid Al Fitr holiday period, with 19 additional flights to destinations including Jedda, Kuwait, Beirut, and Amman.
The airline is expecting more than 150,000 customers to fly with them during the holiday period across the region. They will add an extra seven flights to Jeddah from 7-13 April, providing Emirates customers with more flexibility to venture out to popular destinations like Dubai, London, the Maldives, or visit family and friends in Colombo and Karachi, as well as six extra flights to Kuwait between 7-20 April, catering to the significant travel demand during that time to popular leisure gateways like Dubai, Bangkok, Osaka, as well as Chennai, Hyderabad, Sialkot and Peshawar. Emirates’ flight schedule to Bahrain will also expand to 22 weekly flights starting 2 May to meet increased demand for travel to/from the kingdom. The airline will also be adding four additional flights onto Amman, and two additional flights for Beirut, to accommodate for more travellers.
Emirates will also be serving a specially crafted Eid menu for customers for flights departing from Dubai, serving dishes including chicken biryani and lamb kibbeh labanieh, machbous, and vanilla and rose mousse cake onboard, among other savoury and sweet dishes.
