Flydubai, the budget UAE airline, announced the launch of flights to Sharm El Sheikh.
The low-cost airline will operate three weekly flights to Sharm El Sheikh International Airport from June 15, making it the second destination for the airline in Egypt after Alexandria Borg El Arab International Airport.
This comes after flydubai's launch of new seasonal summer routes to six popular holiday destinations including Bodrum and Trabzon in Turkey, Batumi in Georgia, Mykonos and Santorini in Greece and Tivat in Montenegro.
“As more countries gradually lift restrictions on international travel, we are excited to grow our network and give passengers more options to travel this summer. Sharm El Sheikh has been a popular holiday destination for many years and we expect to see strong demand for travel from the UAE and GCC,” said Ghaith Al Ghaith, chief executive at flydubai.
