Emirates has announced it will fly direct - Dubai to Toronto!
Dubai: Emirates will start thrice-weekly, non-stop service from Dubai to Toronto, a first gateway for the airline in Canada, starting October 29, the airline said.
"Responding to market demand, the new route will provide a first direct link between Canada's largest city and Dubai, providing also convenient, ongoing access to the Middle East, Africa and the South Asian Subcontinent.
The route will provide travellers with access to all major Canadian centres with connections available through Toronto's Pearson International Airport.
The non-stop service will take 14 hours and 20 minutes. The return journey will be completed in about 13 hours.
Making comfort a top concern on the long-haul journey, the aircraft will be fitted with eight private suites in First class, 42 of its latest lie-flat seats in Business class, and a comfortable Economy-class cabin for 304 passengers.
Pending government approval, Toronto will be one of five new Emirates destinations in 2007.
