Dubai: Dubai Airport welcomed El Al’s first scheduled inaugural flight from Tel Aviv to Dubai International (DXB) on Sunday. Israel’s largest airline will operate 14 weekly flights to Dubai starting from December 13.

The schedule will include three flights to be operated on Sundays and Thursdays with double daily flights on other days of the week.

El Al has been quite busy in recent days in building up its UAE bound exposure. It has a codeshare deal with Etihad Airways, which will also apply to their loyalty programmes and destination management services.

The flights will be operated on 737-900 aircraft as well as on a 787 Dreamliner.
