Emirates is set to expand its flight schedules significantly across the region with 19 additional flights during the Eid Al Fitr holiday period, aiming to accommodate over 150,000 customers. This expansion includes extra flights from Jeddah, Kuwait, Beirut, and Amman, enhancing travel flexibility for passengers looking to explore destinations such as Dubai, London, the Maldives, or reconnect with family and friends in cities like Colombo and Karachi.

From April 7-13, Emirates will introduce seven extra flights to Jeddah, while Kuwait will see an increase of six additional flights between April 7-20, catering to the high travel demand during this festive season. Additionally, starting May 2, Emirates will increase its flight schedule to Bahrain to 22 weekly flights to meet the growing travel needs to and from the Kingdom.

To ensure families can come together to celebrate Eid after the Holy Month, the airline will also add four extra flights to Amman and two to Beirut. Embracing its Middle Eastern heritage, Emirates will offer a specially crafted Eid menu on flights departing from Dubai, featuring traditional favorites to enhance the festive mood onboard.

Furthermore, passengers will have access to an expansive entertainment selection on Emirates' ice system, including over 2,000 movies, more than 100 Arabic films, and a wide variety of TV series, podcasts, and music, ensuring a memorable and enjoyable travel experience during the Eid Al Fitr holiday.

This strategic expansion by Emirates underscores its commitment to facilitating holiday travel and enhancing the passenger experience during one of the region's most celebrated times.
