Emirates – Barcelona flight
Emirates will offer an alternative gateway into Spain when it launches services to Barcelona from July 3, 2012. The new service will leave Dubai daily at 6.55am and arrive in Barcelona at 12 noon. Tim Clark, president of Emirates, says the airline will also be doubling frequencies to Madrid from July 1. ‘Madrid has been a strong performer and the demand is there for a second frequency.’
