Emirates Airline is to launch its second daily A380 service to Mauritius on 26th October this year, instead of 1st December as initially planned.
This second A380 service, which will operate as flight EK703/704, replaces the existing Boeing 777 operation and will have a capacity of 489 passengers including 14 luxury First Class Private Suites, 76 lie-flat beds in Business Class and 399 spacious seats in Economy Class.
“We are delighted that we are able to bring forward the start date of the second A380 service to Mauritius. The fact that we are introducing this service to the island in October demonstrates that the popularity of our product is growing consistently. This second A380 will increase Emirates’ capacity by 1,890 seats per week,” said Orhan Abbas, Emirates Senior Vice-President, Commercial Operations, Latin America, Central and Southern Africa.
