Emirates announces London Stansted

Emirates has officially announced that it shall be launching its 10th daily nonstop flight into the London marketplace by adding a new service to STN-London Stansted airport.

The new daily flight will be operated using a B77W (3 class) effective 08JUN18 onwards scheduled as below:

EK 033 Dep DXB 0930 Arr STN 1410
EK 034 Dep STN 2110 Arr DXB 0705+1

Overall for London, EK flies 6 times daily to LHR + 3 daily to LGW and now daily to STN. 

Comments:

Personally speaking, this B77W should have been used to boost EK's Africa presence by operating daily DXB-FIH-BZV-DXB triangular service or DXB-FIH-DLA-FIH-DXB daily or DXB-FIH-LBV-FIH-DXB. They have enough capacity added into UK already whilst in Africa there are still many niche markets which are not yet served.
