Emirates announces three additional weekly flights to Seoul, Effective on February 19
Emirates Airlines, renowned as the world's largest international air carrier, has unveiled plans to bolster its services to Seoul, the capital of South Korea.
Beginning on February 19, the airline is set to introduce three extra flights per week, increasing the total weekly frequency to an impressive 10 flights.
Emirates Airlines Enhances Seoul Operations with Additional Flights
The newly added flights are strategically scheduled for Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and will be operated using Boeing 777-300ER aircraft. Commencing with flight EK 324 departing from Dubai at 4:45 am, the aircraft is expected to touch down in Seoul at 6:05 pm. For the return journey, flight EK 325 will take off from Seoul at 11 p.m. and arrive at Dubai International Airport at 3:15 a.m. the following day.
Significant Capacity Boost and Meeting Growing Demand
Emirates Airlines foresees a substantial increase in capacity between Dubai and Seoul, providing over 1,000 additional seats. This strategic decision aims to address the escalating demand for international travel to Seoul, a highly sought-after destination in Southeast Asia. Additionally, it aims to fortify the tourism flow to and from Korea.
Strategic timing to enhance connectivity
The timings for these new flights have been thoughtfully chosen to enhance passenger connectivity between Korea and Emirates Airlines' extensive European network, which spans 38 destinations. This strategic alignment is intended to better meet the diverse travel needs of customers.
A Continual Evolution Since 2005
Emirates Airlines initiated its service to Seoul in 2005 and currently operates a daily flight with an Airbus A380 from Dubai. With the imminent addition of three more flights in February, the carrier will boast a frequency of 10 flights per week. The expanded schedule will feature a mix of modern Airbus A380 and Boeing 777-300ER aircraft, providing passengers with increased flexibility and diverse options when traveling to and from Dubai. This enhanced connectivity extends across Emirates Airlines' global network, encompassing over 130 cities.
