Hyderabad: Emirates is yet to take a decision on adding extra flights to India and operating Airbus A380 in the summer schedule as the Dubai government is still to take a decision on allocating enhanced quota of 11,000 seats, senior airline executives said today.
Emirates flew in an Airbus A380 super jumbo to Hyderabad which also turned out to be main attraction at the opening day of the air show.
Last month India and Dubai governments agreed to increase the seat entitlements by an additional 11,000 over the existing 54,200 seats.
"We have lived with competition and grown in a market where there is no protectionism. There are 150 airlines which fly to Dubai,'' airline's divisional senior vice president Sheikh Majid Al Maulla said responding to query on competition from Jet Airways-Etihad alliance and Qatar Airways.
