Dubai-based airline Emirates has restarted services to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from September 11 and is set to resume operations to St Petersburg in Russia from October 8.

Flights between Dubai and St Petersburg will be operated four times a week, and the airline will increase its services to daily flights from October 21, a press release said on Sunday.

Emirates now operates 24 weekly flights to the Middle East country, including daily flights to the capital Riyadh and Dammam, daily A380 flights to Jeddah, and three weekly flights to Medina.

Flights to Riyadh will increase to double daily from September 16, and plans are underway to boost frequencies across the other gateways by the end of September.

The Dubai-based airline has been gradually rebuilding its global network, and has resumed passenger services to over 120 destinations, allowing travellers to conveniently and safely connect to the Americas, Europe, Africa, Middle East, and Asia Pacific via Dubai.

Customers travelling to Dubai from October 2021 until the end of March 2022 can look forward to experiencing Expo 2020 Dubai with its six-month programme packed with experiences for all ages, tastes and interests.

The customers of Emirates visiting and travelling through Dubai, anytime during the Expo 2020 period, will be eligible to receive a free Emirates Expo Day Pass for every flight ticket booked with the airline.

Emirates that now operates 21 weekly flights to and from Dhaka, is the only airline to offer first class services to and from the Bangladesh capital.
