Dubai-based flydubai has announced the addition of two new flights a week between Dubai and Bucharest and will now fly daily to the Romanian capital.  

Ghaith Al Ghaith, Chief Executive Officer of flydubai, said: “At flydubai, we are committed to expanding connectivity to destinations that have historically been underserved from Dubai.

“The launch of daily routes to Bucharest will provide greater connection options for flydubai passengers travelling to Dubai and beyond. Popular connecting routes from Bucharest include Colombo, Delhi, Kuwait, Male’, Mumbai and Zanzibar,” said Jeyhun Efendi, Senior Vice President Commercial (UAE, EU, ME, CIS) for flydubai.
