Emirates unveils seven more destinations in A350 network expansion, including Amman

AMMAN — Emirates has revealed the next seven cities to be served by its A350, as more newly delivered aircraft featuring the airline’s latest cabin innovations enter scheduled service.

For the first time, the Emirates A350 will make its debut in Amman from June 1.

With the latest tranche of planned Emirates A350 deployments, the airline is also expanding the list of its short to medium haul destinations served in the Middle East/GCC, Africa, Southeast Asia and Europe, according to a statement for The Jordan Times.

Deputy President and Chief Commercial Officer at Emirates Airline Adnan Kazim said: “Our strategic A350 expansion across diverse geographies in the Middle East/GCC, Europe, Africa and Southeast Asia leverages the aircraft’s operational flexibility and efficiency, while offering more customers expanded premium travel options.”

“The introduction of this aircraft and layering it on existing route schedules also enables Emirates to maintain a compelling competitive position as the airline of choice for discerning travellers looking for a unique slate of connectivity options and elevated onboard experiences they can't have with any other carrier,” he added.

Emirates’ Country Manager in Jordan and the West Bank Mohammad Bin Hafiz said: “Deploying the A350, the latest aircraft to join our fleet, is a demonstration of our unwavering commitment to Jordan."

"As we celebrate nearly four decades of being a part of Jordan skies, cities, and communities, we will continue to raise the bar with next-generation cabin design, exceptional passenger comfort and outstanding onboard service. We look forward to welcoming Jordanian travellers onboard the Emirates A350 soon and enhancing their travel experience,” Bin Hafiz added.

Emirates will announce more A350 destinations, including long-haul routes, in the coming months as new aircraft join its fleet, the statement said.

In addition to the newly added cities, Emirates will layer on more A350 services to Bahrain and Kuwait.

Bahrain will become an all-A350 operation with the addition of the third daily EK 835/836 flight from June 1. Kuwait will be served by a second A350 flight on the daily EK 857/858, according to the statement.
