The renowned airline Emirates has set his eyes on the Hub Lima. Nevertheless, before we start getting excited, It is very important to clarify the status of this project., that although the intention has been ringing for years and the Peruvian authorities themselves have hinted at it, there is nothing confirmed, yet.
A formal request, no immediate start of Emirates flights to Lima
The first thing we must be clear about is that no flights have been announced for tomorrow or the coming months.. Right now, everything is a legal and administrative procedure.
The Government of Italy is evaluating granting special authorization to Emirates. This permission is necessary because the airline wants to connect Dubai with Lima, making a strategic stop in Milan, airport in which Emirates has an important operation and, for example, already connects to New York.
Being a process that depends on government approvals, There is still no definitive confirmation for takeoff, even more so for all the freedoms of the air What must be achieved to make the route commercially attractive?.
Details of the route to Lima
As this is a request under evaluation, There are many questions that still have no answers.. If the route is completely confirmed, Only at that time will the airline announce:
- How many days a week will the plane fly?.
- What time will you leave Lima and what time will you arrive in Europe?.
- Which exact model of your modern fleet will be used for the trip, although the logical thing is that it is with the modern and efficient Airbus A350.
- The cost of tickets and the start date of sale.
Why is it such a long-awaited route??
If the authorities give the final "yes", This flight will operate under a special permit called Fifth Freedom Right. This means that Emirates will not only transport passengers from the Arab Emirates, but will also be able to sell tickets exclusively for the section between Milan and Lima, which annually moves approximately 150 thousand passengers via connection options. This will open a spectacular and luxurious option for Peruvians who wish to travel to Italy..
For now, We have to wait with enthusiasm but with our feet on the ground. As soon as more official news is known!, I will tell you right away in this blog!

It's good that Emirstes arrives in Lima, good for Peruvians, but it really doesn't help us Ecuadorians since the trip is going to get longer and it's difficult to have Bogota or Panama connect with the rest of the world. What Ecuadorians have to do is fly with the airlines that do arrive in Ecuador and connect us with the world.
We have Emirates in Bogotá, It is still the best option so far.
