MANAMA: Emirates will operate a special one-off A380 service to Bahrain on December 15, one day ahead of the kingdom's special Golden Jubilee celebrations.
Bahrain'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 unique, fraternal ties between the two nations, the airline said in a statement.
Emirates is also expecting 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.
