“We are delighted to announce our daily flights to and from Bucharest,” said Ghaith Al Ghaith, chief executive officer of flydubai. “At flydubai, we are committed to expanding connectivity to destinations that have historically been underserved from Dubai.

The airline has seen great demand from passengers travelling to Dubai and further afield on the flydubai network, whether for business or leisure.
“The launch of daily routes to Bucharest will provide greater convenience and 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. “Our Business Class offering, which provides passengers with spacious seats, a choice of meals, generous checked baggage allowance and fast track immigration and security, is particularly popular on this route. It demonstrates our commitment to continually innovate and offer our passengers a range of different travel options and the latest on-board entertainment.”
Flydubai offers its passengers a variety of features on-board including an award-winning inflight entertainment system, comfortable seating and hot meals. The airline recently introduced wi-fi connectivity and Live TV for the first time on selected flights as it continues to roll out the service across the rest of its fleet.
