Emirates, one of the world’s fastest growing airlines, has strengthened its commitment to Pakistan by announcing the addition of a fifth daily flight to and from the city of Karachi. Effective August 1, 2012, the airline will be operating to Jinnah International Airport in Karachi five times a day. This move reinforces Emirates’ presence in the Pakistani landscape and provides passengers with more flexibility and options when travelling to the country’s commercial hub. “This is very exciting news for us as Karachi was the inaugural destination of Emirates when the airline began operations in 1985,” said Badr Abbas, vice-president Pakistan & Afghanistan, commenting on the development. Karachi is known as the financial capital of Pakistan and the additional flight will not only further leisure and business travel but also boost economic activity by providing increased cargo capacity for popular Pakistani exports to many destinations on Emirates’ global network. The additional frequency will be operated by a Boeing 777-300ER in a two-class configuration. Flight EK608 will depart Dubai (DXB) daily at 14:55 local time and arrive in Karachi (KHI) at 18:05. EK609 will depart Karachi at 19:35 local time and arrive in Dubai at 20:50.
