Emirates? A380 returns to London Heathrow since March

Emirates resumed passenger flights onboard its iconic Airbus A380 aircraft between London Heathrow (LHR) and Dubai International (DXB) from July 15.

This marks the first Emirates A380 flight to LHR since the pandemic forced the temporary grounding of the airline's passenger fleet in March. 

The return of the A380 follows the resumption of Emirates? B777 flights to and from London Heathrow, Manchester and Glasgow in the UK.

Emirates has restarted A380 services to Paris and passenger services to seven more cities - Athens, Barcelona, Geneva, Glasgow, Larnaca, Munich, and Rome. From the UK, Emirates customers can now fly to 24 destinations in the Asia-Pacific, and eight cities in the Middle East and Africa via convenient connections at Emirates? Dubai hub, which reopened to international visitors on July 7. Emirates currently serves 50 destinations, and by mid-August, Emirates? global network will include 58 cities. A second daily A380 service to London Heathrow will start from August 1.

Richard Jewsbury, divisional vice-president UK for Emirates, said: ?Our teams in London and Dubai are delighted to bring Emirates? flagship A380 aircraft back to London Heathrow. We've modified services onboard for the health and safety of our crew and customers and look forward to welcoming more passengers as it returns to the skies over London once again.?

Emirates has implemented a comprehensive set of measures at every step of the customer journey to ensure the safety of its customers and employees on the ground and in the air, including the distribution of complimentary hygiene kits containing masks, gloves, hand sanitizers and antibacterial wipes to all customers. 

Visitors to Dubai are needed to hold an international health insurance policy covering illness from COVID-19 for the duration of their stay.
