Flydubai has taken delivery of its 18th aircraft. The new Boeing 737-800 NG is the latest delivery of the order for 50 placed by flydubai at the 2008 Farnborough Airshow.
Chief Executive Ghaith Al Ghaith said: “We are the world’s fastest growing start-up airline and a significant contributor to our success has been our young, efficient and expanding fleet. The range and capabilities of our 18 Boeing 737-800 NG aircraft allows us to provide our customers with high-quality, low-cost links to destinations in the GCC, Middle East, North Africa, Indian Sub-Continent, Asia and the fringes of Europe.”
The new aircraft has gone straight into service just in time to support the new CIS routes launching in September, as well as the upcoming busy Eid holiday, Al Ghaith said.
