Emirates Airline will perform two low-level flypasts of its Expo 2020 Dubai special livery aircraft over Dubai this week.

The aircraft will fly over Sheikh Zayed Road and the Expo 2020 site on Wednesday, October 13 and Thursday, October 14.

You could spot the aircraft across different vantage points between 5:00 am and 8:00 am on both days.

The flypasts are being conducted for a special project to be revealed soon by the airline.

While the public is being encouraged to take photos and videos, Emirates has urged people not to put the flypast at risk by using drones and comply with all GCAA guidelines related to 'no fly zones' for unmanned aircraft/drones.

In September, Emirates unveiled the special Expo 2020 Dubai livery on its A380 aircraft.
