Emirates will be adding an extra flight to its service between Dubai and Algiers, making it a daily service from December 13, 2017.
The launch of the additional flight will complement Emirates’ current six flights a week, and further boost inbound and outbound passenger traffic and flows between Algeria and Dubai.
The new service will operate every Wednesday with an Emirates Boeing 777-300, in a three class configuration offering eight seats in first class, 42 in business class and 310 in economy class.
“In line with healthy commercial demand, we are pleased to introduce an additional service to Algiers,” said Orhan Abbas, Emirates senior vice-president commercial operations for Africa. “Algeria will become the fourth destination in north Africa to have a daily frequency, along with Casablanca, Tunis, and Khartoum.”
Algeria is an important destination in Emirates’ North African network. Emirates launched services to Algiers on March 1, 2013. In less than five years, the route has carried over half a million passengers and nearly 27,000 tonnes of cargo to date.
The new flight will depart Dubai as EK757 at 08:10am and arrive in Algiers at 12:40pm. The return flight EK758 will depart Algiers at 03:10pm and arrive in Dubai at 12:40am the next day.
