While the return flight EK256 leaves Mexico City at 19: 40hrs, arriving in Barcelona at 13: 45hrs the following day. The EK256 will leave Barcelona again on the same day at 15: 30hrs to Dubai where it will arrive at 00: 15hrs on the following day (all hours are local).

The resumption of service between Dubai-Barcelona-Mexico of Emirates will offer more options to travellers travelling from Europe, India, Southeast Asia and the Middle East via Dubai or Barcelona. The service will also provide additional connectivity to global markets for Mexican exports.

Emirates Sky Cargo has operated cargo flights to and from Mexico City since 2014, fulfilling seven years of operations to the country this month. During the Covid-19 pandemic, Emirates Sky Cargo continued its connectivity to Mexico City through cargo flights, bringing Personal Protection Team (EPP) and Covid-19 vaccines into the country, while continuing to support Mexican exports, the airline says.

Emirates has highlighted that he safely and gradually resumed operations throughout his network. Since it safely resumed tourist activity in July, Dubai remains one of the most popular holiday destinations in the world, especially during the winter season and was one of the first cities in the world to obtain the World travel and Tourism Council safe travel (WTTC) seal, which supports Dubai's measures to ensure the health and safety of guests.

Emirates customers from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and from around the world can now plan their trip with ease and comfort, as Mexico remains open for tourists and visitors. Mexico is a popular destination for global business and leisure travelers, particularly from the UAE, Spain, Pakistan, Singapore, Egypt and Lebanon, as well as hosting communities from the Middle East.

Emirates customers who have tickets issued before September 30, 2020 to travel before December 31, 2021, can now rebook to travel at any time within the next 36 months, a 12-month extension of the previous policy.

Meanwhile, ticket holders issued after October 1, 2020 to travel before December 31, 2021 may use their tickets at any time within 36 months of the date of their original booking. No reissue fees will be charged for any ticket, and vouchers or unused parts of Emirates tickets may be reimbursed without penalty.

Customers who have tickets issued directly by Emirates, whether through emirates.com or the airline's sales and contact centers, do not have to contact Emirates, as tickets are automatically extended, however customers who have purchased their tickets through a travel agency will have to contact their agent before the expiration date to re-issue their tickets.

Emirates recommends that its customers check the latest government restrictions on travelling in their home country and ensure that they meet the travel requirements of their final destination.

Emirates will be arriving in Mexico just as soon as the ticket service fee comes into effect by globalizers, as we had published in REPORTUR.mx, as of July 1 (Emirates will charge travel agencies distribution charges).
