The beginning of the Holy Month of Ramadan is not far off (it’s expected to begin on May 5) which means many businesses are gearing up for a change in service.<\/p>\n

Whether it’s a restaurant that won’t open until sunset, shorter working hours or an airline that alters its service to cater for fasting passengers.<\/p>\n

And Dubai’s own Emirates which offers a signature Ramadan service expects to serve up a whopping one million dates as part of that.<\/p>\n

Dates are handed out during iftar and suhoor which Emirates offers throughout the Holy Month<\/h3>\n

Emirates uses the aircraft\u2019s longitude, latitude and altitude to calculate imsak<\/h3>\n

Imsak describes the correct time to break fast and the airline ensures the greatest level of accuracy possible for passengers. The captain on board informs passengers and iftar can begin.<\/p>\n

If you’re travelling during the Ramadan expect especially created iftar meals<\/h3>\n

Plus relevant programming and the distribution of dates and water on board\/<\/p>\n

Along with the one mill dates, the airline expects to serve 150,000 iftar boxes which feature a nutritional way to break your fast including couscous salad & grilled chicken or moudardara and roasted chicken, sandwiches, spinach fatayer or tomato and onion fatayer, assorted sweets, dates, laban and water.<\/p>\n
