First domestic flight takes off from Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi Airports Company (Adac) witnessed the first domestic flight in the UAE as a Rotana Jet flight took off from Abu Dhabi International Airport at 10am on Wednesday morning flying to Fujairah International Airport.

This inaugural flight comes after the announcement made last week about the launch of twice-a-day services to Fujairah, Al Ain and Sharjah from Abu Dhabi International Airport, in an initiative by Rotana Jet to extend its domestic route network.

Rotana Jet will be operating two flights a day between Abu Dhabi International Airport and Fujairah.

Two flights a day to Al Ain will commence on the 26 September 2012 and flights to Sharjah will soon follow.
