Destinations  
   

Very soon, Emirates is to offer non-stop flights to Milan, the fashion hub of Italy operated on a daily basis. In addition, the airline will also be soon serving Rome, the capital of Italy. These services shall mark a tailored approach by the airline in meeting the needs of airline industry.

Under this new launch, flights will take off on 1st July from Dubai to Milan and Rome. The said services will be on non-stop direct basis, operated on all seven days of the week. Notably, just after eight months of launching the airline's services to Venice, the airline has initiated these two new routes that shall offer ultimate comfort and convenience to passengers. The three principal benefits for passengers ensuing from the launch of new services are increased seat capacity in these routes, widening of choices over seats and streamlining of booking through agents. Airbus A330-200 and Boeing 777-300 will serve Milan and Italy respectively.

Emirates' Senior Vice President, Commercial Operations, Europe, Keith Longstaff, observed, "This is great news for our passengers travelling in and out of this part of southern Europe. By removing stops en route, we can get customers to their chosen destination faster and in greater comfort."

"We can also offer more cargo space as the hold will be exclusive to either Milan or Rome, eliminating the need to share precious cargo space with another destination. These significant service improvements highlight our increasing commitment to Italy and to the customers who value our products and services."
