Gulf carrier Emirates has landed in Edinburgh for the first time since 2020. 

An Emirates Boeing 777 was welcomed back in the Scottish capital by the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.

Edinburgh is Emirates’ eighth destination in the UK.

The daily service will complement the airline’s current A380 daily flight to Glasgow – offering customers 14 weekly flights to/from Scotland

Adnan Kazim, Emirates’ Chief Commercial Officer said: “The UK is one of our most important markets, and we’re proud to reinstate our footprint in Scotland.”

Scottish customers can look forward to an elevated travel experience onboard, initially with our Boeing 777 ahead of our highly anticipated A350 arrival.”

Emirates says it will play a crucial role in boosting tourism to Scotland.

According to Visit Scotland, the country welcomed four million international visitors in 2023 – a 23% increase compared to 2022.

Emirates’ daily flight to Edinburgh will also boost cargo capacity with 16 tonnes of cargo per flight.

Emirates serves the UK with 133 weekly flights to eight gateways including London Heathrow, London Gatwick, London Stansted, Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, and Glasgow.
