The route, which will have one daily flight, will be operated on 777-200LR aircraft, which have a capacity of 302 in two classes: 38 in Business Class and 264 in Economy.

“Australia remains a priority market for Emirates and one that we have been deeply committed to for nearly three decades. The return of our Adelaide service reinforces our commitment to expanding our Australia network, which now offers 70 weekly services across five Australian cities”, Emirates’ Executive Vice President, Passenger Sales and Country Management, Nabil Sultan, said.
Emirates now operates 70 weekly services from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide connecting passengers with over 140 destinations.
On 1 December, Emirates will reinstate its second daily service to Perth, offering 77 weekly flights from Australia with the ability to transport 68,000 passengers per week to and from Australia, returning to its pre-pandemic capacity.
