Emirates announced the resumption of flight operations to Argentina, after a break of about two-and-half years.
The airline suspended flight services to the Latin American country in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The first flight to Argentina departed on Wednesday, post-resumption of services announced by the airline.
The Dubai-based carrier will operate four weekly flights to Buenos Aires via Rio de Janeiro, providing customers in Argentina and Brazil with direct connectivity to major business and leisure destinations across the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.
Saeed Abdullah Al Qamzi, UAE Ambassador to Argentina said the return of Emirates Airline to Argentina will contribute to tourism, trade, and investment between the two countries.
He also said it would help leverage the enormous economic potential by providing easy transportation for businessmen and investors.
Trade between the UAE and Argentina witnessed a significant increase over the past year to exceed $1.11 billion and the resumption of Emirates Airlines’ operations will enhance economic and trade growth, Al Qamzi said.
