Emirates Airlines has launched its new daily flights to Dallas city in the US, it was announced Friday.

Emirates will serve Dallas/Fort Worth daily with a Boeing 777 aircraft.

The UAE is the single largest export market for American goods in the Middle East and trade continues to grow sharply, said UAE ambassador to the US Yousef Al Otaiba.
