Emirates Expands Madagascar Services with Six Weekly Flights on Boeing 777
Emirates announced an increase in its flights to Madagascar, going from four to six weekly operations to meet strong passenger demand. The move is expected to boost tourism and trade, with all flights operated by Boeing 777 aircraft, offering both increased passenger capacity and up to 20 tons of cargo per flight
Emirates increased its flights to Madagascar from four to six per week due to strong passenger demand, following the launch of its services in September last year.
This growth, which aims to attract more leisure travelers and boost the tourism sector of the island nation, was announced at a press conference held by the Ministry of Transport of Madagascar, the Ministry of Tourism, and Emirates in Antananarivo.
Since flights began last year, the Gulf airline has observed heightened passenger demand in both directions between Dubai and Antananarivo. The current schedule operates at nearly full capacity, and the additional flights will increase the number of travelers arriving in Madagascar, one of the most popular destinations in the Indian Ocean.
In support of the tourism sector, Emirates has promoted Madagascar as a top-tier vacation destination within its global network of tour operators. The company has also organized familiarization trips for 32 of its main travel agencies. Notably, Madagascar is home to three UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the Tsingy de Bemaraha Strict Nature Reserve, the Rainforests of the Atsinanana, and the Royal Hill of Ambohimanga.
With the increase in flights to Madagascar, all services are operated on Boeing 777 aircraft, providing additional capacity for exports and imports, with the ability to transport up to 20 tons of cargo per flight in the aircraft's holds.
