Beginning on November 15, 2022, Emirates will begin using its flagship A380 aircraft on the route between Dubai International Airport (DXB) and Narita International Airport (NRT).
The Dubai-based airline reported a surge in bookings for Narita and Osaka flights ever since the Japanese government announced the lifting of entry restrictions.
Japan declared in September 2022 that it would remove its COVID-19 travel restrictions as of October 11, 2022, making it simpler for visitors and travelers to enter the country.
EK318 will depart Dubai at 02:55 local time and arrive in Narita at 17:20 local time.
The return Flight EK319, will leave Narita at 22:30 local time and land in Dubai at 05:30 local time the following day.
Currently, Emirates offers flights from Dubai to three airports in Japan: Narita International Airport (NRT), Tokyo Haneda Airport (HND), and Osaka Kansai International Airport (KIX).
The airline will have been flying to Osaka for 20 years in 2022.
