Emirates is ramping up its London Stansted operation by resuming its second daily service to Dubai this spring.

The additional flight, which starts on 1 May, will operate using the airline’s wide-body Boeing 777-300ER aircraft.

Emirates began serving the airport in June 2018, initially with a daily flight, then a twice-daily service in March 2019.

The route was suspended during the COVID pandemic but was reinstated in August 2022 with one flight per day.

The airport recently announced the opening of a new double airbridge (pictured), enhancing its capability to handle wide-body aircraft such as the Boeing 777 and the Airbus A380.

Emirates became the first airline to use the new bridge, which enables passengers to board and disembark wide-bodied aircraft more quickly and comfortably.
