Emirates has announced an additional four flights per week to Jeddah, starting from Dec. 14.

The increased frequency will now enable Emirates’ customers traveling to and from Jeddah to choose from three flights per day. All three daily flights will be operated by a three-class A380 in response to consistently high customer demand in the market.

“The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is a major market for Emirates and its importance is reflected by the fact that we will now operate three flights per day to Jeddah with our popular A380 aircraft. This is tremendous news for both our business and leisure customers and highlights our commitment to providing travelers in Jeddah with not only the very latest in aircraft innovations but also increased connectivity,” said Sheikh Majid Al-Mualla, Emirates’ divisional SVP, commercial operations West.

The additional flights will operate on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays, bringing the total number of weekly Jeddah flights to 21.

Emirates’ First and Business class passengers will also benefit from complimentary chauffeur-driven service to and from the airport, along with access to more than 35 dedicated Emirates Lounges around the world.

Passengers in all cabin classes have access to WiFi, more than 2,000 channels of in-flight entertainment and gourmet-chef prepared meals.

Emirates serves the Kingdom with 63 flights a week via four gateways — Madinah, Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam. This will increase to 67 flights a week from Dec. 14, with the additional services to Jeddah. All flights are nonstop to Dubai where passengers can experience Emirates’ Terminal 3 and travel onward across the airline’s 149 destination network.

Emirates has been operating in the Kingdom for more than 26 years, first launching flights to Jeddah in 1989. The airline was the first to introduce an A380 into the Kingdom by upgrading Jeddah to a double-decker service in 2010.
