Emirates to resume Adelaide route from October 2024

The service will provide South Australia with a link to more than 140 destinations in the airline’s network

Emirates airline has taken the final step in the restoration of its Australia capacity announcing its return to Adelaide. 

A daily service will relaunch between the South Australia capital and the airline’s Dubai hub from 28 October 2024.

Emirates first launched its Adelaide services in 2012. By 1 December 2024, when Emirates also reinstates its second daily service to Perth, the airline will offer 77 weekly flights from Australia with the ability to transport 68,000 passengers per week to and from Australia, returning to its pre-pandemic capacity.

The tourism expenditure of daily direct non-stop Emirates’ flights is estimated by the South Australian Tourism Commission to generate more than US$62 million per year and create in excess of 315 full-time tourism-related jobs for South Australians.
