Dubai-based airline, flydubai, yesterday announced the launch of flights to Mashhad and Tehran, the carrier's first two destinations in Iran, starting from August 10th and 11th respectively.
flydubai will serve Iran with four flights a week, providing passengers with greater convenience when travelling between the U.A.E. and Iran.
With a network of 77 destinations the carrier is looking to expand its network in the market as it continues to strengthen trade and travel links from Dubai to the region.
Commenting on the announcement, Ghaith Al Ghaith, Chief Executive Officer at flydubai, said, "We have been building on the momentum of last year and we've announced 13 new routes since the start of 2014. Our approach to opening up previously underserved markets, including Iran, presents much opportunity for flydubai and enables a greater number of passengers to benefit from Dubai's efficient aviation hub." The carrier, which took delivery of three new Boeing 737-800s in July, has grown its fleet to 39 aircraft with more than 100 new Boeing aircraft on order.
flydubai commenced its new services to Kandahar in July and Aden at the beginning of August. The airline is also set to commence flights to Moscow and Kazakhstan in September, Mumbai in October and to Sarajevo and Zagreb in December.
