Building on an extensive Southern Europe network, the additional flights will cater for Andalusias growing appeal as a holiday destination for tourists from the UAE.

Mr Emre Ismailoglu, General Manager for Dubai & Northern Emirates said: As part of our Widen Your World campaign we encourage passengers to explore new horizons like the incredibly diverse region of Andalusia. Our increased flights to Malaga will meet the growing demand for tourists travelling to Southern Spain over the peak summer season.
Mr Ismailoglu announced that three additional weekly flights to Malaga will be operated from the global carriers hub in Istanbul during the peak summer season, bringing the total number of weekly flights to 10 per week. The new flights will run from 4 August 2014 to 29 August 2014.
He added: To further highlight our connections throughout Southern Europe we are working closely with tourism authorities to showcase destinations that appeal to travellers from the Gulf. Earlier this year we hosted a FAM trip to Malaga, offering agents from the UAE the opportunity to explore Andalusia and its many attractions, from the arabesque influenced palaces and architectural masterpieces, to the bustling cities and luxurious coastal resorts.
The group explored the diverse natural landscape which runs from the heat of the Guadalquivir River valley through to luxuriant mid-mountain areas, volcanic landscapes such as the Tabernas desert, and the snow-capped peaks of Sierra Nevada. The Guadalquivir is Andalusias most important river and brings life to many areas in its journey across the region.

In barely forty kilometres you can go from Alpine mountain landscapes to tropical areas on the shores of the Mediterranean with the coast stretching for almost 900 kilometres.
