Emirates to Operate Second Airbus A380 on Bali-Dubai Route in September

Emirates Bali flight

Emirates announced a second daily A380 service between Bali and Dubai from the 1st of September until the 26th of October, 2024.

According to the United Arab Emirates-based airline, the upcoming Airbus aircraft flights aim to keep up with the influx of travel demands to Bali, especially in anticipation of the upcoming holiday season.

From the 1st of September until the 26th of October, 2024, the Emirates flight EK398/399 between Dubai and Bali will be upgraded to an Airbus A380, replacing the current Boeing 777 service,” Emirates wrote in a statement to the press on Thursday, the 1st of August.

Set to serve the travel demands to Bali with two A380 flights, Emirates plans to offer at least 2,600 additional seats each week to and from the Island of Gods. Moreover, with these additional services, Emirates is hoping that more passengers to and from Indonesia can enjoy the best-in-class products and services; the additional services in question include spacious cabins, exclusive onboard lounges, and an inflight entertainment system that offers more than 6,500 channels of on-demand entertainment.

“Emirates continues to strengthen its long-standing commitment to providing world-class travel experiences and supporting Indonesia’s growing travel and tourism sector,” the airline wrote as well.

Previously, back in May, the Indonesian Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy, Sandiaga Uno, revealed that Emirates was interested in adding flights to Bali. Uno also noted that the Airbus A380-type airline with flights to Bali, preferably the morning ones, was very popular among foreign tourists looking to visit the Island of Gods.

In addition, Uno also offered Emirates to open flights to Yogyakarta International Airport.

“The most interesting thing is Emirates’ hope to increase the number of flights to Bali and super priority tourism destinations [DPS],” Uno told the press back on the 13th of May, 2024.
