The flights will be operated by a Boeing 777-300ER which offers 360 seats. Flights will operate on Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday initially, increasing to daily flights in line with the northern hemisphere winter schedule.
The flight schedule from July 1 is as follows:
- EK793 departs Dubai at 09h55, arriving in Luanda at 14h40.
