Emirates adds two more services to Australian cities of Sydney and Melbourne

Emirates has taken yet another significant step in the resumption of its Australia capacity by increasing its service to two major cities — Sydney and Melbourne. 

The airline will also restart services to Christchurch, New Zealand via Sydney, offering a new path for Australians across the trans-Tasman route.

From March 26, Melbourne will increase from two to three daily services between Emirates’ Dubai hub via Singapore, with a third direct service to also begin to Sydney from May 1. 

Adnan Kazim, Chief Commercial Officer Emirates Airline, said, "Adding a third daily service to Sydney and Melbourne will offer over 500,000 additional seats to and from Australia in a year. To have the two cities operating back at pre-pandemic frequencies is a phenomenal milestone in our restoration of Australia capacity and testament to our long-standing commitment to flying down under.
