Jochebed Menon, July 10th, 2017

Emirates will introduce an additional daily flight to Brussels, complementing Emirates’ existing schedule and providing a double-daily service to customers from October 29, 2017.

Emirates has carried more than half a million passengers between Dubai and the Belgian capital since launching operations on September 5, 2014.

The second daily flight, offering additional cargo capacity in the belly hold of the wide-body Boeing 777-300ER, will enhance trade links between Brussels and Dubai, transporting pharmaceuticals, perishables such as chocolates and automotive parts from Belgium to the UAE and beyond.

Operated by Emirates’ Boeing 777-300ER aircraft in a three-class configuration, the new flight will offer eight private suites in first class, featuring automated sliding doors for privacy and personal mini-bar; 42 lie-flat seats in business and 310 seats in economy.

The new Emirates flight EK181 departs Dubai at 02:20pm arriving in Brussels at 06:45pm. The return flight EK182 departs Brussels at 08:15pm landing in Dubai at 05:55am.

The current flight schedule: EK184 departs from Brussels at 03:05pm and lands in Dubai at 11:40pm; flight EK183 departs Dubai at 08:20am and arriving at Brussels at 01:25pm.
