Sharjah 24 – WAM: Emirates has announced it will operate double daily flights to Seychelles from 24th December 2021, until 9th January 2022 to serve market demand during the busy holiday season.
The added service will offer customers more travel choices, flexibility and enhanced connectivity to the island-nation.
Emirates currently operates a daily flight to Seychelles utilising its Boeing 777-300ER aircraft.

The agreement reaffirms the airline's commitment to the island-nation, and outlines various initiatives to promote trade and tourism to the country.
