Dubai-based Emirates has expanded the network of destinations served by its A380 aircraft with the launch of the first A380 service to Dusseldorf, Germany.

The airline also celebrated its five year anniversary in Prague with a special one-off A380 service.

Dusseldorf is the third German city to welcome a regular Emirates Airbus A380 service, a revolutionary double-decker aircraft that will transport up to 982 passengers in-bound and outbound daily between Dusseldorf and Emirates’ hub, Dubai.

Emirates currently operates a scheduled A380 service to 12 destinations across Europe including; London Heathrow, London Gatwick, Manchester, Paris, Amsterdam, Rome, Milan, Frankfurt, Dusseldorf, Munich, Barcelona and Zurich.
