Emirates

demonstrating the demand for international flights to and from

Far East & Australasia.
“In

using a Boeing 777-300ER, providing passengers with the highest
quality aircraft across all of our cabin classes and more opportunity
to secure a seat on these popular flights, with the number of economy
class seats increasing from 216 to 304,” Mr Obaidalla added.
