flydubai jets into four new markets

flydubai has touched down in four new destinations in a fortnight, just days before it announced its 29th destination – Yanbu in Saudi Arabia.

The latest route network expansion began with Yerevan, the capital of Armenia on 21 November. This was followed two days later with Abha, also in Saudi Arabia, then Sulaimaniyah in Iraq on 24 November. The fortnight of inaugural flights was completed on 30 November when flydubai flight FZ731 arrived in the Turkmen capital Ashgabat.

flydubai chief executive, Ghaith Al Ghaith, said: “It has been a busy few weeks for us, with the start of flights to four new cities, and now the announcement of another destination. These four services perfectly illustrate what flydubai is all about; opening up new markets for passengers in Dubai, while also offering affordable travel to the UAE for people around the region.”
