Emirates’ flagship A380 back to Bangkok operations

Emirates has announced that its flagship A380 service will return to Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi Airport from November 28. The aircraft upgrade will help Emirates to meet strong passenger demand for inbound travel into the popular holiday destination, on the heels of Thailand's re-opening to international tourists who are vaccinated. The daily A380 flights will operate as EK372/373, adding much-needed capacity and frequency to its flights to Bangkok, in response to the uptick in travel demand that the airline is witnessing, said a statement from Emirates. The iconic Emirates A380 aircraft to serve the route will offer seats in First Class, Business Class and Economy Class. The deployment of the double-decker aircraft will complement the existing services, EK384/385, also operating on a daily basis with a Boeing 777-300ER aircraft in a three-class configuration, in addition to its five weekly flights to Bangkok via Phuket, operating as EK378/379, which is set to increase its frequency to daily from December 1. The A380 service to Bangkok, flight EK372, will depart Dubai daily at 09:30am, arriving in Bangkok at 6:40pm, while on return Flight EK373 will take off from Bangkok at 8:35pm and arrive in Dubai at 00:50am the next day, said the Dubai carrier.
