Emirates issues new travel advisory and flags EU biometric border rules

A 22 April advisory clarifies Emirates’ re-booking and refund options through mid-June and highlights Europe’s imminent EES biometric border system. UAE travellers will undergo fingerprint and facial-image capture on first arrival; advance app registration is advised. The note also flags the UK’s February 2026 ETA rollout, signalling more digital pre-clearance across key mobility corridors.
