Emirates ramps up operations at Newcastle
Gulf carrier Emirates is scaling up its operations at Newcastle International Airport, offering passengers from the North East seven days a week service from 1 December 2022.
The airline will introduce a sixth and seventh weekly flight from 1 December to meet the continued demand at the region’s largest airport.
Richard Jewsbury, Emirates Divisional Vice President in the UK, said: “We’re excited to be scaling up our operations to and from Newcastle Airport to offer a daily service from 1 December, in order to provide even better connectivity to people in the North East.”
“With a steady growth in bookings to Dubai and beyond from the airport, we expect this trend to continue over the busy Christmas and New Year period.”
From 1 December, Emirates will serve the UK with 119 weekly flights across seven UK hubs, including Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Manchester, Birmingham and Glasgow, as well as Newcastle.
Emirates’ global network spans 130 destinations, across six continents.
