Suppose its the other 9 months of the year they’ll have looked at to decided what is boosted /reinstated. Perhaps S23 ?

Here is the article. The comments certainly suggest a resumption of EDI-Dubai service is likely. As others have estimated, based on slots request for Dubai, a 5 x weekly service could be a starting point. Perhaps increasing to daily at peak summer times which according to the article, the route previously performed very strongly. Is it too late for a resumption in 2022? Others believe it may be. I’m not so sure. A late November resumption for example would give them ample lead in time and would allow them to meet the the Xmas/NY demand.
