Dubai-based Emirates airline commemorated its fourth anniversary of the launch of its scheduled services between Warsaw and Dubai with a special A380 flight that touched down at Warsaw Chopin Airport on February 10.
The celebratory A380 flight touched down at 1120am Warsaw time and was welcomed by hundreds of well-wishers, watching from the airport perimeter. The flight deck crew were Captain Yunis Al Marzouqi from the UAE and First Officer Tomasz Lubaczewski from Poland.
Once docked at the terminal, airport executives, VIPs, trade partners and media enjoyed a guided static tour of the double-decker aircraft, hosted by members of Emirates’ cosmopolitan cabin crew. The tour gave the guests a chance to see first-hand the innovative amenities provided for passengers like the First Class Suites, Shower Spas and the On-board lounge.
When Emirates launched the route in February 2013, Poland became the airline’s 129th international destination. The new scheduled flight opened up enhanced opportunities for business, trade and tourism, strengthening ties between the UAE and Poland and forging a longstanding and invaluable partnership between the two countries.
During the past four years, Emirates has carried over 700,000 passengers on the route. Through the airline’s cargo operations it has provided vital links for businesses in both Poland and the UAE to ship their goods quickly and efficiently.
The Emirates A380 operated into Warsaw as EK179, departing Dubai at 0805 and arriving in Warsaw at 1120 local time. On the return journey it serviced EK180 departing Warsaw at 1450 landing in Dubai at 2330. - TradeArabia News Service
