Emirates, the award-winning Dubai-based international airline, is introducing more services on the Paris/Dubai route.
Emirates Airbus aircraft will leave Dubai on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 0800 to reach Paris at 1245. Southbound flights will leave Paris on the same days at 1430 to reach Dubai at 0015 local time.
As well as providing a better service for business travellers, the new flights will offer French holidaymakers more opportunities to take a break in the Gulf's premier vacation destination.
Airbus A330 aircraft with a choice of First, Business and Economy cabin service will fly the route, giving customers throughout the aircraft the chance to enjoy Emirates' highly popular cabin service and in-flight catering and entertainment.
The airline will continue its three-a-week services between Nice and Dubai, and the extra Paris/Dubai flights will also offer extra freight space for cargo shippers and forwarders.
Ghaith Al Ghaith, Emirates' Commercial Operations Director, said today: "Demand for our award-winning service means we need to offer more seats on our French flights.
"Our new frequencies will help meet the needs of business travellers, holidaymakers and firms sending goods by air, and mark a milestone in our progress towards daily departures to Dubai from Paris Charles de Gaulle."
