Emirates recently unveiled plans to boost capacity to Athens with addition of a second daily flight.
The new service will commence from 1 March 2016. The addition of a second daily service will take total weekly Emirates flights serving Athens to 14. The flight will be linked to existing Dubai-Larnaca route.
The Dubai-Larnaca-Athens service will be operated by a Boeing 777-300ER aircraft in a three-class configuration, with eight suites in first class, 42 in business class, and 310 seats in economy class.
“The airline since inception of the route has carried over 2.2 million passengers. The expanded schedule will also enable more connections for business and leisure passengers travelling from Athens to Dubai, Manila, Johannesburg, Dhaka, Melbourne, and Hong Kong,” said Thierry Aucoc, senior vice president, commercial operations, Europe and Russia.
Flight EK 107 will depart Dubai at 0750hrs, arriving in Larnaca at 1020hrs. It will then depart Larnaca at 1150hrs, arriving in Athens at 1335hrs. The return flight, EK 108, will leave Athens at 1615hrs, arriving in Larnaca at 1800hrs. It will then depart Larnaca at 1930hrs, and land in Dubai at 0125hrs the next day.
