British Airways to Resume Dubai flights in July

Tourists are welcome to travel to Dubai again from July and British Airways is set to be among one of the first non-local airlines to fly passengers back to the emirate.

The British airline will recommence flights from London Heathrow to Dubai International Airport on Friday, July 17.

A spokesperson for the airline said, “Our current schedules show the LHR to DXB route will operate every other day from the 17th, and then daily from August 1.

“We are unable to confirm at this stage what aircraft we will operate.”

In-flight rules

All explorers on trips to Dubai must keep British Airways’ refreshed standards for movement. These incorporate self-administration registration and mandatory face cover just as limiting development around airplane lodges. English Airways will furnish explorers with individual security packs containing antibacterial wipes and hand sanitiser gel.

The airline also advises travellers to check the guidelines set up for tourists arriving in Dubai. Current measures include having relevant medical insurance, completing a health declaration form and registering personal details on the Covid-19 DXB tracing app.

The resumption of tourism to Dubai will start on Tuesday, July 7. Travel restrictions for Emiratis and foreigners living and working in the city have also eased.

Several other airlines hope to restart flights to Dubai next month. Turkish Airlines’ latest network schedule includes 11 weekly flights from Istanbul to Dubai, effective from July.

Air France also has plans for a July resumption of service on its Paris to Dubai route, according to data from Airlineroute, an online resource for airline network updates.
