IN RESPONSE to strong passenger demand, Emirates has launched extra frequencies to Frankfurt and will upgrade one of its Munich flights to an A380 superjumbo. The new, daily Frankfurt flight will take effect during the next winter schedule, making the city a triple-daily service and from January 1, 2012, the airline’s morning service to Munich will be upgraded to a superjumbo. Emirates will be the first foreign airline to return the A380 to its home in Germany and the first carrier to operate an A380 to Munich, supporting the airport’s A380-readiness. 'A third daily flight to Frankfurt and the German-built A380 serving Munich is another positive step in what is now a multi-billion-dollar relationship between Emirates and Germany, supporting thousands of German jobs,' said Salem Obaidalla, Emirates’ senior vice president, commercial operations, Europe and Russian Federation.
