Emirates announced on X that it will add a fourth daily flight to London Gatwick starting February 8, 2026, using the Emirates A350. The additional service aims to increase travel flexibility between Dubai and London.

According to the official Emirates announcement, the airline will launch this fourth daily flight with all flights operated by the new Emirates A350 aircraft.
