Emirates is increasing capacity from Manchester to Dubai by 21% this winter
The airline is to introduce a new Boeing 777-300ER aircraft on to its second non-stop daily flight to the Emirate from October 29.
It will be the second 777 to be used on Emirates’ services from Manchester, offering a two-class configuration of 427 seats, with 42 in business and 385 in economy – 149 more seats a day than the aircraft that currently operates the service.
The new 777 aircraft will operate Emirates flight EK020 which departs daily from Manchester at 19.50, arriving in Dubai at 06.40 the following morning. The return flight EK019 departs Dubai at 14.35 and arrives in Manchester at 18.10 the same day.
