Emirates Enhances Services To Cairo
Published in Amwal Al Ghad on 02 - 07 - 2012

Emirates, one of world's fastest growing airlines, has strengthened its commitment to Egypt with the introduction of one additional flight per week effective from 5th July. This will take the total number of flights offered on the Cairo-Dubai route to 14 per week.
“This increase comes in line with our strategy to expand and grow in the Egyptian market," said Saeed Khalifa bin Sulaiman, Emirates Manager in Egypt. “Egypt is a key market for us and we see this positive increase in demand as a healthy sign that portrays great potential in the overall aviation, tourism, and business sectors. This additional flight will offer customers greater flexibility in choosing their travel times as well as help support further business and tourism opportunities in Egypt."
The additional flight will operate from Cairo at 11:55 arriving to Dubai at 17:30 DXB to return from Dubai at 08:50 and arrive in Cairo at 10:40.
“More access reflects better opportunity for economic growth and expansion between the two countries" concluded Bin Sulaiman. “Demand for the DubaiCairo route has risen exponentially over the past years with both capitals fast becoming the regional hubs for businesses that cover the Middle East and Africa region. Connecting these two countries and beyond with additional flights will serve to improve these businesses which will in turn reflect positively on both economies."
Premium on board service includes Emirates' award-winning ice in-flight entertainment system, offering more than 600 channels of on-demand entertainment, including 50 new movie releases, 25 movie classics and 25 children's films. A large number of Arabic, Hindi and other world cinema films are also available. Entertainment choices also include video and audio on-demand, interactive games, satellite telephone, SMS and email, live BBC news headlines, an air show moving map and external cameras for a bird's eye view of the journey en route.
Additionally, Emirates Airline provides its customers with tailored Stop Over packages that enable travellers swift visa access, accommodation, tour agenda and agenda at affordable, uncompetitive prices.
With a fleet of 175 aircraft, and 228 on order, Emirates is the world's largest Airbus A380 and Boeing 777 operator. Emirates currently flies to 123 destinations in 73 countries.
Emirates recently commenced services to Dublin, Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, Lusaka, Harare, Dallas and Seattle, Ho Chi Minh City and will be launching Barcelona on 3rd July, Lisbon from 9th July and Washington effective from 12 September 2012.
