Emirates Airline has plans to start a second daily flight between Dubai and Houston on Nov. 1.
The expansion will also come in the form of another daily flight between Dubai and Los Angeles, to begin on Oct. 31. This gives the Dubai-based airline two flights daily to Houston, both on Boeing 777 aircraft.
“Emirates has experienced very strong demand across all of its U.S. gateways this year, including very healthy premium and business traffic,” Tim Clark, president of Emirates Airline, said in a statement. “We are delighted to meet this increased demand with the start of second daily services to both Houston and Los Angeles.”
Emirates began its first nonstop service to Houston in December 2007. In addition to Houston and Los Angeles, Emirates currently flies nonstop to New York and San Francisco.
