Fudzail travelled from Dubai to Shanghai with the Royal Wing (read no passport control, no check-in desks and no queues). Flying on a specially converted Boeing 747-400, Fudzail rubs shoulders with Dubai International Capital boss Sameer Al Ansari, Emirates Airline chairman Sheikh Ahmed and Jumeirah Group executive chairman Gerald Lawles.

Emirates increases its frequency of Dubai-Shanghai flights from 3-weekly to daily flights.

10 Apr 2004

Emirates introduces non-stop flights from Dubai to Shanghai, with 3 flights per week on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays (EK302). The planes being used are Airbus A340-300 aircraft.

Emirates' Senior Vice President Commercial Operations, East Asia and Australasia, Richard Vaughan, said that "Emirates is glad to offer customers yet another exciting destination. Shanghai is not only a huge and growing international commerce center, but also a buzzing hive for arts and cultural activities, making it an attractive destination for both business and leisure travellers. We are also happy to provide Chinese travellers with an easier, more convenient route to Dubai, the most cosmopolitan and exciting city in the Middle East. Dubai's excellent geographic location at the crossroads of Europe, Africa and Asia, also means travellers from Shanghai can easily connect onwards to many other destinations in the Emirates network. Emirates' new direct services will facilitate the travel flow in both directions and will encourage a greater exchange of business, tourism and culture."
