The airline has resumed passenger services to over 120 destinations, recovering close to 90 per cent of its pre-pandemic network. Emirates has signed recently a codeshare agreement with Azul Linhas Aereas Brasileiras SA (Azul), which will allow customers to seamlessly connect to and from eight cities in Brazil to Emirates’ global network via Sao Paulo.
