Breaking: Emirates Flight Lands In Lagos For First Time In Two Years
Emirates, the flagship carrier of the United Arab Emirates, has resumed its operations in Lagos, marking a significant return after a two-year hiatus.
This is coming two years after the suspension of operation by the airline over several issues including unresolved trapped funds belonging to the airline.
The flight EK 783 landed at the Murtala Muhammad International Airport (MMIA), Lagos, on Tuesday at 3:32 pm, arriving at the old terminal with several empty seats on its Boeing 777-300ER.
Despite the capacity to hold 392 passengers, the exact number of passengers aboard could not immediately be confirmed; however, eyewitnesses noted the visible presence of many unoccupied seats.
This sparse passenger load highlights the challenges airlines are facing as they resume operations post-pandemic and other operational suspensions.
According to reports by Daily Trust, the operational processes also saw departing passengers being processed at the new terminal, while those arriving were received at the old terminal.
One of the passengers said, “The flight was not full at all but as usual the services were very good. And I think this is understandable being the first flight after many years.”
