Abu Dhabi's first low-cost airline has added another destination to its growing network.
Air Arabia Abu Dhabi will begin flying to Sudan from the UAE on October 7.
Flights to the Sudanese capital of Khartoum will operate via an Airbus A320neo. The airline will operate to Sudan three times per week.
Outbound flights are scheduled to leave Abu Dhabi International Airport at 7.50pm on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Return services will depart Khartoum International Airport at 10.45pm.
The new route is the sixth to be added to Air Arabia Abu Dhabi's network. The low-cost airline launched in July 2020 and the airline also flies to Cairo, Alexandria, Sohag, Kabul and Dhaka.
Launching in a global pandemic saw Air Arabia Abu Dhabi commence flying with enhanced safety measures in place on all flights. These include High Efficiency Particulate Arrestance air filters in cabins, cabin crew wearing full PPE and food and drink served in hygienic sealed packages.
Travellers flying with Air Arabia from the UAE can get a Covid-19 PCR test in partnership with NMC Hospitals. With an Air Arabia booking, the cost of the service is Dh150 and there are locations in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah and Ras Al Khaimah where tests can be carried out. Home testing is also available for a cost of Dh190.
Recipe
Garlicky shrimp in olive oil
Gambas Al Ajillo
Preparation time: 5 to 10 minutes
Cooking time: 5 minutes
Serves 4
Ingredients
180ml extra virgin olive oil; 4 to 5 large cloves of garlic, minced or pureed (or 3 to 4 garlic scapes, roughly chopped); 1 or 2 small hot red chillies, dried (or ¼ teaspoon dried red chilli flakes); 400g raw prawns, deveined, heads removed and tails left intact; a generous splash of sweet chilli vinegar; sea salt flakes for seasoning; a small handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
Method
▶ Heat the oil in a terracotta dish or frying pan. Once the oil is sizzling hot, add the garlic and chilli, stirring continuously for about 10 seconds until golden and aromatic.
▶ Add a splash of sweet chilli vinegar and as it vigorously simmers, releasing perfumed aromas, add the prawns and cook, stirring a few times.
▶ Once the prawns turn pink, after 1 or 2 minutes of cooking, remove from the heat and season with sea salt flakes.
▶ Once the prawns are cool enough to eat, scatter with parsley and serve with small forks or toothpicks as the perfect sharing starter. Finish off with crusty bread to soak up all that flavour-infused olive oil.
