Emirates is set to resume its Airbus A380 flights to Prague on December 1, marking the return of the superjumbo to the Czech capital after a hiatus since March 2020. This move comes as Emirates prepares for competition with Etihad Airways, which plans to begin Abu Dhabi-Prague flights in 2025 using Boeing 787-9 aircraft.

The resumption will see Emirates operating its two-class, 615-seat configuration A380 on this route for the first time. This configuration includes 557 economy seats, more than any other layout in their fleet. The increased capacity represents a significant daily seat increase of 71% compared to the current Boeing 777-300ER service.

Since commencing operations in July 2010 with an A330-200 aircraft, Emirates has used various aircraft types on the Dubai-Prague route, including the Boeing 777 series. After an initial one-off A380 flight in July 2015 and regular services between May 2016 and March 2020, operations reverted to the Boeing model due to pandemic-related disruptions.
