Emirates to launch A380 service to South America
Emirates Airline will operate its first scheduled commercial Airbus A380 flight to South America when the carrier upgrades existing Boeing 777-300ER Dubai-São Paulo Guarulhos (GRU) service March 26. Emirates said the A380 service will mark the airline’s 10th year of operations in Brazil, which it began with daily flights to São Paulo in Oct 2007. In 2012, Emirates added daily Dubai-Rio de Janeiro services. “The switch to the A380 offers a total of 959 additional seats per week in each direction, meeting a growing demand,” Emirates. The 3-class A380 offers 14 first-class seats, 76 lie-flat business seats and 401 seats in economy class. GRU CE Gustavo Figueiredo said the airport has made significant investments to upgrade the facilities to accommodate the A380. <br/>
