Emirates expands its Gatwick service, offering double daily flights. Since the start of the year, UK bookings from Gatwick alone have more than doubled.
The increase in services at Gatwick follows the quick restart of operations to Emirates’ hubs across the UK as the airline continues to respond to the lifting of international travel restrictions around the world.
The introduction of the second daily Gatwick service takes Emirates’ total UK weekly flights to 91. Gatwick is being served by both the Boeing 777 and the A380 widebody aircraft, offering passengers a choice between First, Business Class and Economy, providing an iconic travel experience with spacious cabins, outstanding service and industry-leading entertainment throughout. The expansion of the service also comes after the reopening of Emirates’ lounge at Gatwick in January.
Richard Jewsbury, divisional vice president at Emirates UK, commented: “We have seen a considerable uptick in demand for international travel in recent weeks, particularly from the Southeast and are pleased to be expanding our operations from Gatwick. Emirates is fully committed to the UK and we have operated flights from the airport for over 30 years, providing vital connectivity to Dubai and across our international network for passengers travelling for business, leisure or to visit loved ones. The route has also carried billions of pounds worth of cargo into and out of the region – supporting UK businesses of all shapes and sizes.”
Emirates currently offers a six times daily A380 London Heathrow service, double daily A380 flights to Manchester, a ten-weekly service to Birmingham, a daily service to Glasgow, a four-weekly service to Newcastle and now a double daily service to Gatwick.
