Emirates continues to expand its operations between Dubai and Bangkok, with the addition of another pair of flight a day between the two cities.

The new rotation will increase Emirates operations to seven times a day between Dubai International Airport and Bangkok Suvarnabhumi.
The new rotation – EK350/EK351 -will be operated with a Three-Class Boeing 777-300ER, operating as follows:

The combined timetable is a mixture of A380s and Boeing 777-300ERs between Dubai and Bangkok, providing a connection to pretty much any Emirates arrival at Dubai.

This adds another 354 to 360 seats a day, or between 2478 to 2520 extra seats a week between the two cities.
Or if we’re doing the full capacity count and Emirates using its larger configuration aircraft (Emirates operate 517 seater A380s, and 360 seater Boeing 777-300ERs),
- Per day: 3,148
- Per week: 2,2036
That’s a LOT of seats to fill per day/week. But if Emirates is good at anything, its pricing fares to fill those seats.
