Enhanced frequencies at Emirates’ London hubs, including Heathrow and Gatwick, will take the airline’s total weekly services to 90 flights by February 2026.

 

Emirates last month confirmed a fourth daily flight from Gatwick starting on 8 February, 2026, operated by new Airbus A350 aircraft.

 

The carrier will serve the UK with a record 146 weekly flights by then across Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted, in addition to Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, Glasgow and Edinburgh.

 

This comes as BA recently announced it is strengthening its UAE connection to the UK market, launching a daily service between UAE capital Abu Dhabi and London Heathrow from winter 2025.

 

October will also see Emirates increase frequencies on routes to other in-demand cities, adding a third daily service between Dubai and Dublin and Dubai and Barcelona, both starting 26 October.
