Flydubai ready for take off
Flydubai is Dubai’s first low cost carrier and aims to make travel a little less complex, a little less stressful and a little less expensive. The unveiling ceremony revealed the aircraft to a crowd of industry experts, staff and media and gave the first real glimpse of the airline’s striking livery.
The bright tones of blue and orange, personally selected by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, were chosen to reflect the colours and the coastline of Dubai.
The orange reflects the sun, sand and the warmth of the people of Dubai, while the blue reflects the endless blue skies and the sparkling blue seas that Dubai is famous for.
Already, flydubai has announced four destinations, Beirut, Amman, Damascus and Alexandria, and there will be more announcements to come in the near future.
The flydubai model is simple, with customers paying for the services they want.
The ticket price includes all taxes and a generous hand baggage allowance of 10kg. From there, customers are able to select other services at an additional charge.
Flydubai will operate from an enhanced and modernised terminal 2 on the north side of Dubai International Airport.
