From March 24, 2026, the type on the regular EK139/140 route from Dubai to Prague to Dubai has been changed. Emirates is replacing the currently used Airbus A380 with a smaller Boeing 777-300ER. The first day of the change, the aircraft registered A6-EGJ (production number 38989, year of manufacture 2011) was flying the route.
The carrier will offer 310 seats in Economy, 42 in Business and eight in First Class.
Emirates is facing a dramatic decline in demand due to the ongoing conflict. Some flights to Dubai are only minimally booked, which illustrates the extent of disruption and the challenges associated with restoring the network.
Prague Airport has previously hosted Emirates Boeing 777s on regular flights from Dubai. This type operated the route until the end of November 2024. From December 1, 2024, it was replaced by a Superjumbo.
The route to Dubai was opened in July 2010. Since May 2016, it has been regularly operated by an Airbus A380. Emirates used to fly to Prague up to twice a day. Before the pandemic, the midday service was operated by an Airbus A380, and the evening service by a Boeing 777.
