Emirates Flying Again and Introducing Some Changes
Following the news and updates around the COVID-19 pandemic, many airlines were forced to suspend or reduce their daily operations. We have the latest information from airlines and hotels all around the world. We first saw almost all airlines cutting back on flights or completely stopping all service two months ago. As the pandemic started to slow down airlines are slowly rebuilding their schedules, putting out promotions, and most importantly – flying again. Emirates announced some small in-flight changes, and the plan to resume flights to 9 destinations. In the following weeks we will probably see more airlines making similar steps.
Emirates resuming flights to 9 destinations
Emirates announced the plan to resume scheduled flights to nine destinations: Chicago, Frankfurt, London Heathrow, Madrid, Melbourne, Milan, Paris, Sydney, and Toronto. The airline scheduled the start of these flights for May 21, 2020. Also, Emirates will offer connections in Dubai for passengers traveling between the UK and Australia. Of course, all these plans are subject to government approval. From the official press release:“We are pleased to resume scheduled passenger services to these destinations, providing more options for customers to travel from the UAE to these cities, and also between the UK and Australia. We are working closely with the authorities to plan the resumption of operations to additional destinations. We have implemented additional measures at the airport in coordination with the relevant authorities in respect to social distancing and sanitization. The safety and wellbeing of our employees, customers and communities, remain our top priority.” CEO of Emirates Adel Al Redha
