Emirates Expands UK Network with 4th Daily Flight to London Gatwick

Emirates Adds Fourth Daily Service to London Gatwick from February 2026

Emirates will introduce a fourth daily flight between Dubai and London Gatwick starting 8 February 2026. The new service, EK069/070, will be operated by the airline’s Airbus A350-900, featuring Business Class, Premium Economy, and Economy Class cabins.

This addition brings Emirates’ total daily London operations to 12 flights across London Gatwick, Heathrow, and Stansted, offering more travel time options and flexibility. Flight EK069 departs Dubai at 17:05hrs and arrives in London Gatwick at 20:50hrs. Return flight EK070 leaves London at 23:55hrs and lands in Dubai at 11:00hrs the following day.

The late-evening timing is intended to suit travelers seeking end-of-day departures and early arrivals. For Dubai-bound passengers, the flight aligns with hotel check-in schedules, while those flying out of Dubai can use the day for business or leisure before their trip.

The A350-900 operating this route will feature 32 lie-flat Business Class seats in a 1-2-1 layout, 28 Premium Economy seats, and 238 Economy Class seats. Key features include wireless charging in Business Class, electric window blinds, digital inflight menus, and other updated cabin elements.

With the new flight, Emirates’ UK operations will include 140 weekly services across eight cities: London (Gatwick, Heathrow, Stansted), Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, Glasgow, and Edinburgh, operated by A350s, A380s, and Boeing 777s.
