Emirates has stepped in to help stranded Egyptians get home, as it plans to operate four flights between Dubai and Cairo on 14, 18, 19, and 21 June.

Flights can be booked on emirates.com, via travel agents, Emirates sales office and contact centre.

Only Egyptian citizens and those who meet the entry requirements of the destination will be allowed to board. Passengers will be required to comply with all requirements of the destination country.

Customers can also connect to these flights in Dubai from any destination on Emirates’ current network of 30 destinations in the GCC, Asia Pacific, Europe and the Americas.

Travellers from the UAE should arrive at Dubai International airport Terminal 3, three hours before departure. Check-in counters will only process passengers holding confirmed bookings.
