flydubai Adds Extra Flights to Beirut for Eid

flydubai, a low cost Dubai-based airline, is to operate extra flights to Beirut for Eid Al Fitr.

To accommodate anticipated heavy demand, flydubai has scheduled additional flights on 17, 18, 19 and 25 September departing from Dubai International Airport’s Terminal 2 at 7.40pm and arriving in Beirut at 10.15pm (local time).

For passengers wanting to travel to Dubai the return flight will take off from Rafic Hariri International Airport, Beirut, at 11pm (local time), arriving in Dubai at 3.20am.

Ghaith Al Ghaith, CEO of flydubai said, “The extra flights will allow more people to spend the festive season of Eid with friends and family and will be popular to those planning a short getaway during the holidays. This is a busy season for travel so we urge passengers to book early so as not to be disappointed.”

The flydubai model is simple, with customers paying only for the services they want to receive. The ticket price includes all taxes and one piece of hand baggage, weighing up to 10 kg, per passenger.

Passengers have the option to purchase checked-in baggage in advance at just AED 40 for the first piece and AED 100 for the second, weighing up to 32 kg, subject to availability.

Checked baggage at the airport is also strictly subject to availability and passengers are advised to book online early to secure the space, as only pre-purchased baggage can be guaranteed.

A nominal payment of AED 5 allows customers to select their seat and just AED 50 secures the extra legroom positions. Bookings can be changed for a small fee, plus any difference in the fare, and food and drink can be purchased on board.

flydubai operates from a modernised and enhanced Terminal 2 on the north side of Dubai International Airport.
