Emirates has further extended its suspension of outbound passenger flights from South Africa. Last week it extended the ban to April 15, now it has moved this along until April 22.

This is in line with UAE government directives that restrict the entry of travellers originating from South Africa.

Daily flights continue - inbound flights may carry passengers, but outbound are for cargo only.
