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. The airline states that the additional frequency responds to sustained high demand for travel on the Dubai–London corridor, offering passengers more departure times and booking flexibility. Emirates highlights that this move will strengthen its schedule with a total of 11 daily flights to London across three airports.

As reported by Simple Flying, Emirates’ Airbus A350 fleet will feature enhanced fuel efficiency, modern cabins, and the latest in-flight amenities for all passengers.

Simple Flying notes that Emirates’ A350s are configured for premium travel, with new-generation business and economy class seats to attract both leisure and corporate travelers.
