Emirates is adding flights to Dar es Salaam and Entebbe to meet increased demand.

Daily flights to Dar es Salaam will start on May 1, up from the current five times a week, and daily flights to Entebbe will start on July 1, currently six times a week.

The flight schedules will be as follows:

Dar es Salaam:

Flight EK725 will depart Dubai at 09h30 and arrive in Dar es Salaam at 13h55. Flight EK726 will depart Dar es Salaam at 15h25 and arrive in Dubai at 21h50.

Entebbe:

Flight EK729 will depart Dubai at 09h55 and arrive in Entebbe at 14h25. Flight EK730 will depart Entebbe at 16h25 and arrive in Dubai at 22h50. A Boeing 777 aircraft will be used on the routes.

Adnan Kazim, Emirates Chief Commercial Officer said: “Emirates continues to expand its global network and deploy its capacity to meet travel demand across the world. Our financial year started relatively quietly as we held back our ramp-up until the planned northern runway rehabilitation programme at Dubai International Airport was completed in June. From July 2022 onwards, it’s been non-stop expansion.”

Kazim added that customer demand had been very strong. “Emirates is working hard on several fronts. To bring back operating capacity as quickly as the ecosystem can manage, while also upgrading our fleet and product to ensure our customers always enjoy the best possible Emirates experience.”
