flydubai has doubled its flights between the UAE and Bangladesh with the start of a new service to the country’s capital, Dhaka.
Flight FZ583 from Dubai touched down at Dhaka’s Shahjalal International Airport on Monday, where a welcoming committee of government and industry officials received a delegation of senior flydubai executives.
flydubai entered Bangladesh in January with a four-times-a-week service to the port city of Chittagong. The inauguration of flights to Dhaka, flydubai’s 32nd destination, doubles this tally.
flydubai CEO Ghaith Al Ghaith, said; “The industry and entrepreneurship of the Bangladeshi people have contributed to the growth and success of the UAE in recent years, and it is gratifying to see ties between our two countries grow even closer. Our new service to Dhaka will build on the success of our popular service to Chittagong and open up more promising business opportunities for both countries.”
HE Ghulam Muhammed Quader, Honourable Minister for Civil Aviation and Tourism in Bangladesh, added; “I am delighted to welcome flydubai’s first flight to Dhaka. I am confident these flights will help to increase the opportunities for trade and commerce between the two nations. I wish the operation of flydubai between Dhaka and the UAE great success.”
The flydubai service from Dubai to Dhaka will operate four times a week. Flight FZ583 will leave Dubai at 1340hrs and arrive in Bangladesh at 2015hrs local time. The return flight FZ584 leaves Dhaka at 2115hrs, landing in Dubai at 0100hrs. The low-cost carrier operates from Terminal 2 of Dubai International Airport.
