Whether you’re heading home, traveling for work, or planning a long-overdue trip, Emirates Airline has announced an update that’s worth knowing about in 2026. Starting April 2, it will add four new weekly flights from Dubai to Manila.
When booking a trip, travelers will be able to choose from 34 weekly flights between the UAE and the Philippines. According to Emirates, the additional flights will provide shorter connections to and from North American destinations and also align with late-morning European departures.
