Emirates airline is increasing the number of flights to Seoul with over 1000 additional seats per week
Dubai-based Emirates Airlines has announced an increase in its flights to Seoul, South Korea, with an addition of three flights per week. The changes are set to take effect on February 19, 2024.
These additional services will boost the weekly seat capacity between Dubai and Seoul by over 1,000 seats, catering to the recovering demand for international travel to this popular destination in East Asia. The move is also expected to support tourism both inbound and outbound in Korea, as reported by Khaleej Times.
The new flights are scheduled for Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Flight EK324, operated by a Boeing 777-300ER aircraft, will depart from Dubai at 4:45 am and arrive at Seoul Incheon International Airport at 6:05 pm. The return flight, EK325, will take off from Seoul at 22:00 and land in Dubai at 1:35 the next day.
Emirates Airlines initiated flights to Seoul in 2005 and currently operates daily flights using an Airbus A380 aircraft from Dubai. With the upcoming additional services, the airline will have a total of 10 weekly flights serving Seoul.
