Dubai, The current Emirates fleet will expand by five aircraft in the month of December as the Dubai based carrier adds three new Airbus A380s and two new Boeing 777s.
An Airbus A380 and a Boeing 777 were earlier delivered this month and the remaining three will join during the month of December 2012
Adel Al Redha, Emirates' executive vice-president of Engineering and Operations, added “Adding a single new aircraft into the fleet, for any airline, requires careful planning and good logistical support.
“However, adding five new aircraft over the course of one month is a true achievement. Notwithstanding the precise planning that takes place in inducting these aircraft into the network, none of this would be possible without our professional team of flight crew, cabin crew, engineering, airport and ground operations personnel.”
“I commend our teams for their commitment and professionalism in providing a seamless transition in taking delivery and the induction of these aircraft into our service; as well as their dedication in ensuring our passengers experience the latest innovation in cabin furnishing and our award-winning service every day, on every flight across our 128 destinations on six continents.”
Emirates is the worlds' largest operator of A380s currently serve Amsterdam, Auckland, Bangkok, Beijing, Hong Kong, Jeddah, Kuala Lumpur, London Heathrow, Manchester, Melbourne, Moscow, Munich, New York JFK, Paris, Rome, Seoul, Shanghai, Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo and Toronto.
