Emirates is sending its popular A380 aircraft to Rome to mark Fiumicino airport's 50th anniversary, along with 150 years of Italian unification. On June 6, the superjumbo replaces EK 97 and EK 98 – departing Dubai at 0855hrs and arriving in Rome at 1315hrs. The flight leaves Fiumicino, Rome at 1645hrs and arrives in Dubai at 0035hrs the next day.
This aircraft is sought after by travellers around the world, and now passengers travelling between Dubai and Rome have an opportunity to enjoy our superjumbo, while we join in the celebrations for both Fiumicino airport, Rome and Italy as a nation,' said Salem Obaidalla, Emirates' SVP, Commercial Operations, Europe & Russian Federation.
Flying into Rome on the back of the UN's World Environment Day (June 5), the super-efficient A380 has impeccable environmental credentials.
