Emirates will launch non-stop, daily flights between Dubai and Geneva from June 1.

Geneva, one of the most important banking and financial cities in the world, will become Emirates' 111th international destination and its 26th destination in Europe.Geneva is also the home to over 300 international government and non-governmental organisations, such as the United Nations Office, the World Trade Organisation and the World Health Organisation.

"Switzerland has been part of the Emirates network since 1992, when we began flights from Dubai to Zurich. The announcement of Geneva as our newest European destination underlines our commitment to this important country," said Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of Emirates Group.

"Our research has shown that there is a high demand for this route from across our network, from both the business sector, particularly financial, and the leisure travellers who are looking for both summer relaxation and winter sports," added Sheikh Ahmed.
