Emirates increases capacity on Gatwick services

Monday, 19 May, 2006 0

Emirates, the Dubai-based international airline, has increased capacity by more than 500 seats each week on its services between Dubai and London Gatwick, with the introduction of a new Boeing 777-300ER aircraft on one of its three daily flights to London Gatwick.

Emirates now operates the brand new Boeing 777-300ER (Extended Range) aircraft, the longest, and one of the word’s largest commercial aircraft, on one of its frequencies to London Gatwick.

The new aircraft provides 364 seats in a three-class configuration, with 12 seats in First Class, 42 in Business and 310 in Economy – 74 more seats per day than the aircraft currently operating this flight.

A key feature available throughout the aircraft is Emirates’ unique information, communications and entertainment system – ice – which offers more than 500 channels of on-demand entertainment from the latest films, to every No1 hit since 1952, news programmes and games, along with the ability to send e-mail and SMS messages.

Tim Clark, President Emirates Airline, said: “The introduction of this state-of-the-art aircraft onto our services to London Gatwick, coupled with the recent opening of the Emirates Lounge at the airport, underlines our commitment to offering the highest levels of service to our customers travelling to and from London Gatwick.”
