Emirates restores services to five African countries

Tomorrow will see the resumption by Emirates of passenger flights between Dubai and five African countries.

These include Addis Ababa, Ethiopia; Dar es Salaam, Tanzania; Nairobi, Kenya; Harare, Zimbabwe; and Emirates’ three South African gateways, Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban.

All passengers travelling from Emirates’ African network with Dubai as their final destination require a 48-hour PCR test.

They must present a valid negative Covid-19 PCR test certificate with a QR code for a test conducted at an approved facility, and validity must be calculated from the time the sample was collected.

Upon arrival in Dubai, they will undergo an additional Covid-19 PCR test and remain in self-quarantine until the results of the test are received.

Passengers travelling from these destinations and transiting in Dubai are required to follow the rules and requirements of their final destination.
