More direct flights to serve Dubai and Tel Aviv

More flight options are opening up between Dubai and Tel Aviv.

Emirates Airline will launch daily non-stop services on the route, starting December 6.

Customers will also benefit from the airline's codeshare partnership with flydubai.

The move comes as the UAE and Israel continue to develop greater economic cooperation to drive growth across a range of sectors.

The flight timings to/from Tel Aviv will offer travellers convenient access to major leisure destinations beyond Dubai like Thailand, the Indian Ocean Islands and South Africa, among others.

Daily flights are scheduled to depart Dubai at 14:50hrs, arriving at Ben Gurion Airport at 16:25hrs local time, while the return flight will depart Tel Aviv at 18:25hrs, arriving in Dubai at 23:25hrs local time.

With the opening of visa-free travel between both countries and the easing of restrictions across the Emirates network, the new services will meet future travel demand in and out of Tel Aviv.

From 6 December, we will commence daily flights between @DXB and Tel Aviv, Israel. https://t.co/w1F33tfIy2 pic.twitter.com/3FNr5stsPo
