Emirates has resumed its daily flight service between Dubai and Adelaide, offering over 4,200 weekly seats on a Boeing 777-200LR aircraft. This service provides 302 seats across two cabins, with 38 in Business Class and 264 in Economy Class. The airline expects to accommodate more than 220,400 passengers annually between the two cities.
