Emirates will resume four-weekly services to Orlando from June 2021, further expanding its US network, and offering customers worldwide more travel choices and enhanced connectivity via Dubai.

With the addition of Orlando, Emirates will be serving over 60 weekly services to and from 11 US destinations including Boston, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington D.C, Seattle, Dallas, Houston, San Francisco and Newark (in June), the airlines said in a statement.

Emirates customers also have seamless access to other US cities via the airline's codeshare agreements with Jetblue and Alaskan Airlines.

The state-owned airlines reported a $3.4 billion half-year loss and received $2 billion from the Dubai government to help it through crisis.
