Flydubai has reported a 114 percent jump in passenger bookings in the first quarter of the year.
The airline said it has operated 19,000 flights and carried 2.35 million passengers during the period.
Moreover, the airline also witnessed an increase in demand for connecting traffic with 43 percent of the passengers connecting to the carrier’s network compared to 28 percent for the same period last year.
The statement added that the airline has grown its network to more than 100 destinations exceeding pre-pandemic levels.
“We have continued our growth in 2022 capitalizing on the tremendous results we reported for 2021. We have seen the number of passengers carried in the first quarter of this year more than double compared to the previous couple of years as we welcomed the world during Expo Dubai 2020, connected underserved markets to Dubai and added more frequencies around the network,” said Ghaith Al-Ghaith, CEO of flydubai.
