"Emirates is launching a series of initiatives to make it even more compelling for travellers to plan their visit and experience Dubai. Last month, we announced that we'll give a free Expo Day Pass to every Emirates customer travelling to Dubai during the Expo period. We introduced an innovative 'mile a minute' offer for our Skywards members. Today we are launching an early booking discount on flights to Dubai across all our markets," said Adnan Kazim, Chief Commercial Officer at Emirates.

"In the coming weeks, we plan to roll out offers tailored for families, a special Expo edition of our popular 'My Emirates Pass' product, a celebratory offer for the UAE's 50th jubilee anniversary and more, so stay tuned,” he added.
