Emirates is adding 17 weekly flights to Thailand , Jakarta, Manila and Sydney, which will bring its Asia Pacific service to 187 flights a week.The airline has been seeking out pockets of rising demand as a wider trend of depressed global air travel remains due to the downturn and fears of the H1N1 pandemic.
Worldwide, airlines were expected to lose US$11 billion (Dh40.4bn) this year, the International Air Transport Association has said.
“Asian markets are rebounding with reports of resurgent traffic at key airports in the region,” said Richard Jewsbury, the senior vice president of commercial operations for the Far East and Australasia at Emirates.“We are confident of seeing a recovery soon and are introducing additional capacity to serve the increasing demand.”
