In an update posted on their official website, the Dubai carrier said flights to and from Osaka - EK316 and EK 317 - will be cancelled on August 14 and 15.

The airline regretted the inconvenience caused to its passengers and urged them to check for rebooking options with their travel agents or Emirates local office.
