Dubai-based airline flydubai is expanding its European network by launching direct flights between Dubai and Ia\u0219i, eastern Romania, with the first flight scheduled for September 19. The new route makes flydubai the first carrier from the United Arab Emirates to offer direct service to Ia\u0219i.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Flights will operate twice weekly, on Tuesdays and Fridays, between Ia\u0219i International Airport (IAS) and Dubai International Airport (DXB), the Romanian airport announced.<\/p>\n
Ia\u0219i becomes flydubai\u2019s second destination in Romania, alongside Bucharest, where the airline has been operating since 2012.<\/p>\n
In addition to the flights from Ia\u0219i, flydubai announced the launch of operations to Chi\u0219in\u0103u in Moldova starting September 17, Vilnius in Lithuania from December 11, and Riga in Latvia from December 12, expanding its European network to 35 destinations across 20 countries.<\/p>\n
Costel Alexe, president of the Ia\u0219i County Council, stated: \u201cThe new route between Ia\u0219i and Dubai is a major achievement. With our new passenger terminal and upgraded infrastructure, we have continued to expand our route network, making Ia\u0219i more accessible to the whole world today. Dubai is one of the largest global air hubs, and this new route will not only open the way to important destinations worldwide but will also serve as a gateway between Ia\u0219i Airport and the Middle East region.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Return ticket prices start at EUR 380 in Economy Lite and EUR 2,000 in Business Class. The flights will be operated with Boeing 737 aircraft.<\/p>\n
flydubai has built a continuously growing network of over 135 destinations in 58 countries, more than 100 of which previously had no direct air connections to Dubai. The airline operates a modern fleet of 88 Boeing 737 aircraft.<\/p>\n\n
