Emirates to increase capacity to India.
Emirates confirmed plans to increase capacity to India, particularly Chennai, subject to government approval.

The carrier doubled frequency to Chennai Feb-06 to eight per week, and currently operates once daily four days per week (except Tuesdays), and twice daily on weekends.

Emirates currently operates 71 services per week to eight cities in India using B777 and A330 aircraft, including to Chennai, Thiruvananthapuram, Kochi, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Mumbai, New Delhi and Kolkata. The carrier also placed orders for 47 A380s, but is yet to disclose whether the aircraft would be used on Indian services.
