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.
