Emirates has touched down in the Scottish capital for the first time since 2020. The Boeing 777 was welcomed by the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, captivating passengers with an extraordinary display of musical prowess on the ground.
The daily service to Edinburgh departs Dubai at 14:50hrs local time and arrives in Edinburgh at 19:05hrs local time. The return flight departs Edinburgh at 20:40hrs and arrives in Dubai at 08:05hrs, the following day.
Edinburgh is Emirates’ 8th destination in the UK. The daily service will complement the airline’s current A380 daily flight to Glasgow – offering customers 14 weekly flights to/from the country.
Boosting tourism
Emirates will play a crucial role in boosting tourism to Scotland. According to Visit Scotland, the country welcomed 4 million international visitors in 2023 - a 23% increase compared to 2022, contributing £3.59 billion to the economy.
Emirates’ flight operations to Scotland will help attract more visitors from top inbound markets such as Australia and India, and across the airline’s global network of over 140 destinations, helping raise awareness and visibility around the country’s unique experiences and landscapes.
Boosting trade
Emirates’ daily flight to Edinburgh will also boost cargo capacity and enable Emirates SkyCargo, the airline’s cargo arm, to uplift 16 tonnes of cargo per flight - supporting local businesses, improving trade links with global markets, and increasing popular high-value and time-sensitive goods such as salmon, shellfish, and whisky.
Connecting UK to the world
Emirates serves the UK with 133 weekly flights across eight gateways including London Heathrow, London Gatwick, London Stansted, Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, and Glasgow – utilising a fleet mix of Emirates A380 and Boeing 777 aircraft.
Customers onboard can look forward to the airline’s regionally inspired gourmet meals, premium beverage selection, and inflight entertainment on ice with up to 6,500 channels of on-demand entertainment.

Wonderful event and topics discussed, hopefully we see the manifestations in our African airline businesses in the nearest future. Kudos to you all.
