Emirates scores a double with first-ever service
Emirates scored a double first-ever service as two of its A380 super jumbos jetted off from Dubai, marking the aviation world’s first A380 commercial services to Bangkok and Toronto. The launch of Emirates’ A380 operations daily to Bangkok and thrice weekly to Toronto signals a new era of luxury air travel to Thailand and Canada, and represents yet another milestone in the airline’s A380 programme. President Emirates Airline Tim Clark said, “A380 services to Thailand and Canada will help address the strong demand for passenger and cargo services on the Dubai-Toronto route which is currently restricted by the bi-lateral agreement to three flights per week.”
