Emirates Airlines Adds Four Weekly Flights to Adelaide
July 6, 2012
Emirates Airlines is adding Adelaide to its expanding global route network.
The South Australia capital will become the fifth Australian destination served by the Dubai-based carrier, which already flies to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth.
Emirates will initially operate four services a week, before increasing to a daily operation at the beginning of February 2013.
Emirates first began flying to Australia in 1996 and currently operates 70 flights per week to the country, serving Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth. Jane Jeffreys, chief executive, South Australian Tourism Commission, said the new service was a major game changer for South Australia in terms of international tourism generally and also for business tourism.
“Emirates is a significant win for South Australia given its extensive network through our key international markets in Europe and the United Kingdom.
In addition this new service also opens new doors to markets in the Middle East,” Jeffreys said.
