Emirates to add more capacity for Moscow

Emirates is looking to serve its Moscow route with a double daily A380 service from 1 August 2014. This second A380, which will operate as flight EK133/134, replaces the existing Boeing 777 operation and increases seat capacity by 15%. Thierry Antinori, executive vice president and chief commercial officer, Emirates said: “Operating Moscow-Dubai now as a full A380 route reflects the strength of this strategic market and opens up a choice for passengers travelling from Domodedovo to Dubai.” The aircraft will offer 399 seats in Economy Class, 76 in Business Class and 14 First Class Private Suites. The upgraded A380 service leaves Dubai as EK133 at 0935hrs, arriving at Domodedovo Airport at 1445hrs. It returns as EK134 leaving Moscow at 1755hrs landing at Dubai International Airport at 2255hrs.
