Emirates announced it will begin a daily service between Dubai (DBX) and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. The route is set to launch Dec. 15.

The service will connect the Middle East with the South Florida area, including Fort Lauderdale, Miami and West Palm Beach. It will also mark Emirates’ 11th passenger route in the United States.

Emirates will use a Boeing 777-200LR with a three-class configuration. The plane will have eight first-class suites, 42 business-class lie-flat seats and 216 economy seats.

“Fort Lauderdale and Miami are two of America’s most exciting destinations for leisure and business travel,” said Sir Tim Clark, president, Emirates. “Broward County and Dade County combined to host more than 25 million visitors last year, mainly from the United States and Latin America.”

He added, “We anticipate our service will contribute to the economy of South Florida by bringing new travelers to the area from across our route network, at the same time offering greater competitive choice for consumers and new one-stop passenger and air cargo connectivity for the region to the global destinations that we serve. We launched our non-stop Dubai–Orlando service roughly a year ago and its strong performance encouraged us to select Fort Lauderdale as our 11th U.S. destination.”
