Emirates Airline on Tuesday announced plans to launch its fourth daily A380 service between Dubai and Bangkok from December 1.
The new two-class A380 service will operate daily as flight EK376 from Dubai to Bangkok and EK377 from Bangkok to Dubai.
The up-gauge from its current Boeing 777-300ER aircraft will see an increase in capacity of 255 seats per flight and 3,570 seats per week to and from the Thai capital city, the Dubai airline said in a statement.
Barry Brown, Emirates divisional senior vice president, Commercial Operations East, said: “Thailand is an important market for Emirates, and the A380 has been extremely popular with travellers since we first started the double-decker aircraft service to Thailand in 2009.”
Emirates’ two-class A380 is capable of carrying 615 passengers across its business and economy cabins – accommodating 58 lie-flat seats in Business Class and 557 seats in Economy Class.
Emirates is the world’s largest operator of the A380 aircraft, with 64 in the fleet and 76 on order and its A380s serve 34 destinations.
