Emirates Airlines renews appeal for more flights

Emirates Airlines, one of the flag carriers of the United Arab Emirates, appealed on Malacañang anew on Friday to approve its request to increase the frequency of its Manila-Dubai flight from two to three because of the growing number passengers, mostly overseas Filipino workers.

Abdalla Al Zamani, Emirates Philippines Country Manager, said the company has also asked the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) to reconsider its decision rejecting its application to increase the frequency of its flights.
