The UAE's national carrier is upping its game with an exciting expansion to Paris with double daily flights available to the French capital from January
This new schedule kicks off with the return of the Airbus A380 on November 1st, 2024, followed by the addition of the sleek Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner for the second daily flight from January 2025.
The double daily flights are designed to boost tourism to Abu Dhabi, especially for those seeking a premium travel experience.
