flydabai came into being last year and is owned by the govt. of Dubai, it is a low cost airline and will begin operations in a couple of months time with flights to Beirut and Amman from it’s Dubai HQ.
The airline has some serious plans to become a major player in the Middle East low cost sector. This is borne out by the deal that was struck with Boeing at last years Fanfare Air Show when flydubai signed up for fifty Boeing 737-800 NG jets. Initial services will be operated by four leased B737-800’s.
flydubai’s own statement says the budget airline is all about removing the complexity from travel wherever possible. By keeping things simple, flydubai reduces its operating costs and that means lower fares for you. And lower fares bring people together.
As with all LCC’s passengers pay a low basic air fare and everything else has to be paid for. Passengers are, however, entitled to take up to 10kgs of hand luggage into the cabin.
CEO Ghaith Al Ghaith commented "as a true low cost airline, we have looked very hard at ways to make our operations more efficient. If we find a cost that can be eliminated, we will with the savings passed onto our customers,he said.

Sounds a bit like a Ryanair of the Mid East, lets hope their decisions are more popular than some of the Irish harpists’.
flydubai are launching in very trying times and we sincerely hope the the market they are after materialises and they make a success of this bold new venture.
