Bangalore, Sep 12: Emirates Airlines will increase the number of direct flights between Bangalore and Dubai from October 1.
It has also introduced a number of holiday packages for the region, starting from Rs. 27,389 for a three nights-four-day package.
Lowest fares
Emirates’ Sales Manager for Karnataka, Sudhir Sukumaran, told presspersons on Thursday, that the airline offered some of the lowest fares compared to other air travel hubs such as London.
Free ride
From September 12, Bangalore will become the first city in the south, where the airlines will provide a free chauffer-driven ride to and from the airport for First and Business Class passengers. “Flights from Bangalore have an average load factor of 80 per cent and seasonal demand is often more. This prompted us to add more flights from here,” he added.
