(17/01/23) Emirates has confirmed that it will ramp up the frequency of flights to Hong Kong with a daily non-stop service from its Dubai hub, starting 29 March 2023 - just in time for the world-famous Hong Kong Sevens which will take place 31 March - 2 April 2023.

The new service adds to Emirates' existing daily flight from Dubai to Hong Kong via Bangkok, and pushes the airline’s operations in the market up to 14 flights per week.

Operated with Airbus A380 aircraft, Emirates’ flight EK380 is scheduled to depart Dubai at 10:45 and arrive in Hong Kong at 22:00. The return flight, EK381, is timed to leave from Hong Kong at 00:35, arriving in Dubai at 05:00.

The resumption of flights EK380/EK381, gives travellers the choice of flying non-stop or breaking their journey in Thailand while also giving the carrier's cargo business an important boost.

Emirates currently deploys its flagship A380 to 40 destinations worldwide including London Heathrow, Sydney and Houston. The double-decker is expected to serve nearly 50 destinations by the end of this summer.
