Dubai impressive given that the summer months tend to be the weaker months for travel to Asia and Australasia.
DXB routes are never weak(er). They're always strong with business and obviously now that DXB, MLE and South East Asia are becoming more and more popular with tourists and holidaymakers flights are always busy. Not to mention the inbound OZ/NZ traffic.
84% full A332 every single day however is very very impressive whatever time of the year for NCL! I'm also pretty sure that the belly will be packed full of Newcastle Brown also so certain to be a money maker for EK.
Great to see NCL doing so well with the airline of the moment.
