Emirates Airline has announced it will launch a new five-times-a-week service to Venice beginning next July, its third Italian destination after Milan and Rome, according to media reports.
Emirates will operate an Airbus A330-200 on the route offering 27 business class seats, and 251 in economy, plus 13 tones of bellyhold space for cargo.
The new route is expected to stimulate a greater flow of tourism and business traffic between Dubai and the commercial region of Veneto in northern Italy.
