Emirates is setting a new benchmark for convenience and flexibility, unveiling an additional six weekly flights to London Heathrow from 26 October 2025. The expansion comes amid soaring demand and record-breaking growth, just in time to help travellers tackle the winter travel rush and the year-end festivities in style.
More Flights, More Flexibility
Already operating six daily A380 departures to and from London Heathrow, Emirates’ new schedule will add extra services on all days except Fridays throughout the winter period. These flights are operated by the airline’s spacious Boeing 777-300ER, offering over 350 seats each way across First, Business, and Economy. Whether you’re chasing a last-minute meeting, a Christmas shopping spree, or setting off on a European summer holiday, you’ll have more departure time choices and a smoother journey in both directions.
Seamless Global Connections
Strategically timed overnight departures out of London mean smoother onward connections through Dubai to favourite holiday spots like Phuket, Kuala Lumpur, Durban, and Hong Kong, plus business capitals across China and Southeast Asia. For travellers heading to London, Emirates delivers well-timed links from cities including Ahmedabad, Maldives, Riyadh, and beyond—making it easier for everyone, from corporate warriors to families, to reach the UK capital.
Luxury in Every Cabin
No matter your seat, expect Emirates’ renowned hospitality and attention to detail. From multi-course menus inspired by international cuisine (and an impressive wine list to match) to a vast inflight entertainment selection—boasting over 6,500 channels of movies, TV, podcasts, audiobooks, and games—every passenger can relax and enjoy the journey.
A Growing Footprint Across the UK
It’s not just Heathrow that’s seeing an upgrade. Emirates recently announced a fourth daily service from London Gatwick starting February 2026 and, by early next year, will operate 90 flights each week from their London hubs alone. By February 2026, customers will have access to a whopping 146 weekly Emirates flights between the UK and Dubai, including connections via Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, Glasgow, and Edinburgh.
Flexible, frequent, and fabulous—this expanded schedule is a game-changer for travellers with the UK on their itinerary. For the latest schedules, detailed departure times, and to reserve your next flight, visit Emirates directly, use the Emirates App, or contact your favourite travel agent.
