AWARD-winning Emirates is to boost its Manchester Airport business next summer by adding a second daily scheduled service to its base in Dubai.
Currently, Emirates has a daily departure at 14.00 from Terminal 1.
From June a second 285-seater Airbus 330 will leave at 20.35 and arrive in Dubai at 06.50.
Maurice Flanagan, Emirates Group Managing Director, said: "When we first launched our Manchester route in 1990, with just two flights a week, we predicted that it would sell."
