Flydubai Expands Summer Routes With New Daily Flights To Al Alamein In Egypt

flydubai, a carrier based in Dubai, has introduced new summer flights to Al Alamein International Airport (DBB). This daily service will provide more travel options next summer to a rising holiday spot in the region. Flights will run from Terminal 2, Dubai International (DXB), from 21 June to 07 September 2025, offering direct access to Egypt's popular Al Sahel North Coast.

Ghaith Al Ghaith, flydubai's CEO, expressed enthusiasm about adding Al Alamein to their summer schedule. He stated: "we are excited to add Al Alamein to our seasonal summer schedule. The daily operation will enable more visitors to enjoy the stunning Mediterranean coastlines, beautiful beaches and vibrant atmosphere of Egypt’s North Coast region. flydubai remains committed to stimulating free flows of trade and tourism in underserved markets and supporting Dubai’s aviation hub."

With the addition of these flights, flydubai now serves three destinations in Egypt: Alexandria, Cairo (Sphinx), and Al Alamein. The airline operates 21 weekly flights across these locations. Since launching flights to Cairo last year, there has been increased demand for this new gateway to the capital.

Sudhir Sreedharan, Divisional Senior Vice President of Commercial Operations for UAE, GCC, Africa, and the Indian Subcontinent at flydubai, highlighted their ongoing efforts: "we continue to look for new opportunities to grow our network and offer our customers more options for travel, especially during busy travel periods. Al Alamein is a fantastic new edition to our summer offering which includes popular destinations such as Batumi, Bodrum, Corfu, Dubrovnik, Mykonos, Santorini and Olbia. We are confident that Al Alamein will be a popular destination for passengers from the UAE as well as from across the network."

The introduction of flights to Al Alamein is part of flydubai's broader strategy to expand its network during peak travel times. This includes other sought-after destinations like Batumi, Bodrum, Corfu, Dubrovnik, Mykonos, Santorini and Olbia. These additions aim to cater to growing passenger demand during busy periods.

This strategic move by flydubai not only enhances connectivity but also supports Dubai's position as a major aviation hub. By tapping into underserved markets like Egypt's North Coast region, the airline continues its commitment to facilitating trade and tourism flows.
