According to the airline’s study submitted to Aerocivil, Colombia represents a significant and growing demand for air travel to and from the Arab world.
“The arrival of Emirates to Colombia marks a historic milestone in our air connectivity and strengthens commercial and cultural ties with the Arab world,” said Transport Minister William Camargo Triana.
