Emirates is all prepared to launch flights to Buenos Aires from 3rd January 2012.
The President of Argentina, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, was among more than 800 guests from local industries, the travel trade and the government, who gathered for a gala dinner event at Centro Costa Salguero to discover more about one of the world’s most successful airlines.
Guests also had the opportunity to experience elements of Emirates’ flagship A380 aircraft, with a replica First Class Private Suite on display.
“Emirates’ first destination in Argentina is a significant next step as the airline looks to broaden its reach across the Americas. In joining Emirates’ network of more than 100 cities worldwide, Buenos Aires will enjoy a new bridge to the world; one that spans from key trading partners in the Far East to important markets in the Gulf,” said Thierry Antinori, Executive Vice President –Passenger Sales Worldwide.
“As well as attracting new trade and investment into Argentina, Emirates will play an important part in supporting the country’s US$4.9 billion tourism industry, introducing new audiences to Buenos Aires and drawing in visitors from far-flung points across the globe,” continued Mr Antinori.
