Emirates Goes All-Airbus A350 on Baghdad Route: A Fleet Optimization

Emirates is transitioning its Baghdad service to an all-Airbus A350 fleet starting January 1, 2026, replacing Boeing 777 operations. The strategic deployment reflects the carrier’s commitment to its ‘Fly Better’ initiative and represents a significant milestone in the airline’s A350 rollout. With 13 aircraft currently in service and 52 on order, Emirates continues expanding the next-generation widebody’s operational footprint across its network.
