Emirates will launch a daily service to the island of Bali in Indonesia from its global hub in Dubai from June 3, 2015.

One of the most popular islands in Indonesia with spectacular mountains and picturesque beaches, Bali welcomed more than 3.7 million foreign tourist arrivals in 2014.

Bali will be Emirates’ 148th global destination, adding to the airline’s route network in the Asia Pacific region that currently spans 23 destinations in 13 countries.

“We are pleased to be able to offer the Emirates product on a daily basis, connecting passengers in Bali to Dubai and to more than 80 destinations in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and the Americas, via one convenient stop in Dubai,” said Thierry Antinori, executive vice president and chief commercial officer, Emirates airline.

“The new service will greatly increase convenience, choice, and consistency of travel experience for consumers who currently have to travel via multiple stops, or via other points in Indonesia to reach Bali.”

The service will leave Dubai as EK398 at 08.20am and arrive at Bali’s Denpasar International Airport at 9.40pm the same day, local times.

The return flight, EK399, will depart at 11.40pm and arrive at Dubai International Airport at 5am the next day.

Emirates operates daily scheduled flights between Malta and Dubai via Larnaca, Cyprus.
