Emirates’ bookings to US down 35%

Abu Dhabi – Mubasher: Emirates’ bookings to US declined 35% after President Donald Trump's January travel ban, CNBC Arabia reported.

Trump issued an executive order, which takes effect on 16 March, keeping a 90-day ban on travel to the US by citizens from Iran, Libya, Syria, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen.

The airline’s president Tim Clark hoped for an improvement in the summer after the usually quiet period during Ramadan.
