Emirates announces launching of its fourth daily service to
Dhaka from 29 March 2020 instead of 1 June 2020. The fourth daily
will boost Emirates weekly services to Dhaka from 21 to 28, and will connect
customers seamlessly across the airlines global route network spanning six
continents.
Ahmed Khoory, Emirates Senior Vice President Commercial
West Asia & Indian Ocean said: "Since our announcement of Emirates planned
fourth daily service to Dhaka, weve experienced healthy forward bookings and
seen a significant uptake in demand for the service. It is a sign of the
countrys strong economic growth, its allure as a trade and business partner
globally, and Bangladeshi travellers desire to explore the world. All these
factors have inspired us to bring forward our launch to 29 March 2020. The
new service will benefit customers with a more varied and flexible schedule, as
well as smooth and seamless connectivity to Europe, the Americas, Africa and
the Middle East."
The new service will be operated by a Boeing 777-300ER in a
two-class configuration, featuring 42 Business Class and 310 Economy Class
seats. This will add 280 tonnes of cargo capacity each way, every week.
Emirates SkyCargo currently offers more than 800 tonnes of cargo capacity every
week.
Flight EK588 will depart Dubai at 10:30pm and arrive in
Dhaka at 5:20am next day. The return flight EK589 will depart Dhaka at 8am and
arrive in Dubai at 11am. The service has been carefully timed to create
convenient connections to several popular cities, including London, Rome, Frankfurt,
Porto, New York, Washington, D.C., Mexico City, Johannesburg and Cape Town.
