Emirates will operate a special one-off A380 service to Bahrain on December 15, one day ahead of the country’s Golden Jubilee celebrations.
The Kingdom’s 50th anniversary coincides with the UAE's Golden Jubilee, and Emirates’ special one-off operation with the specially emblazoned 50th livery further demonstrates the fraternal ties between the two nations.
Emirates also expects a jump in demand between Bahrain and Dubai during the long weekend ahead, and the airline is boosting its capacity to meet the high traveller volumes.
The Emirates A380 service will operate as EK 839 and EK 840 on December 15, departing Dubai at 1605hrs and arriving in Bahrain at 1625hrs. The flight will then depart Bahrain at 1745hrs, arriving in Dubai at 2000hrs.
Emirates has been serving Bahrain for over 20 years, and currently operates 19 weekly flights to the Kingdom. The airline has been gradually rebuilding its operations to and from the Kingdom in line with growing demand, helping connect travellers from Bahrain to over 120 global destinations.
It has also been working closely with aviation and travel partners in Bahrain to further enhance connectivity and expand benefits for travellers.
At the Dubai Airshow last month, Emirates signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Gulf Air to develop a codeshare partnership and increase co-operation in a number of areas across the business. This agreement offers more choices and convenient connections for travellers across the two airline networks, in addition to reciprocal frequent flyer programme benefits.
Customers flying to and from Bahrain on December 15 can enjoy its signature products onboard including First Class Private Suites, the A380 Onboard Bar, and inflight entertainment systems offering big personal screens in the sky and a choice of content, including over 300 channels of movies, shows, podcasts and music in Arabic.
Emirates’ special fares for National Day
Bahraini travellers can take part in the spirit of National Day by visiting their friends and families, or takeoff to any of Emirates’ global network of over 120 destinations. The airline has rolled out special fares starting from BHD240 ($637).
In addition, Emirates Holidays is offering up to 50 per cent savings on hotel stays with a deposit of BHD19 per person only.
The offer is valid on bookings made until December 18, for travel until March 31, 2022.
