The company continues to expand its operations, against a backdrop of stable demand for flights, and its route network now includes more than 125 destinations in 56 countries.
The company announced that it has returned to operation about 85% of its network and is currently operating an average of about 2,200 flights per week.
In recent months, flyduisrbai has resumed flights to destinations including Aleppo in Syria and Benghazi in Libya, and at the same time launched new routes, including Bangkok, the capital of Thailand.
Due to high demand, the company has increased the frequency of flights to Don Mueang Airport in Bangkok from one daily flight to three direct flights per day. In addition, on September 23, the company will begin operating flights to Pokhara, Nepal, its second destination in the country after Kathmandu.
During the summer, the company operated 11 seasonal destinations, including Bodrum, Corfu, Mykonos, Santorini and Tivat, which were in high demand from passengers from the UAE and travelers who continued via Dubai.
Thanks to the combined network of Flydubai and Emirates, access is now possible to more than 214 unique destinations in more than 100 countries, with more than 4,600 connection options via Dubai.
