To coincide with the anniversary, holidays by flydubai is further cementing its commitment to easy and affordable travel by offering customers the ability to customise their holiday packages as well as diversifying their product offering and widening the network of partners.

Sudhir Sreedharan, Senior Vice President of Commercial Operations (UAE, GCC, Africa and the Indian Subcontinent) at flydubai, said: “We fully realise that the way people travel has changed. As travel restrictions gradually ease, we can see that customers are starting to plan their holidays again.   66% of UAE residents surveyed by us in February said that they were likely to travel soon, either in the next one to three months (41%) or in the next four to six months (25%), indicating an intent to travel during the summer. Destinations on our networks such as Tiblisi in Georgia, the Maldives and Colombo in Sri Lanka are proving popular as are countries that have recently opened up to tourism including Albania, Armenia and Serbia.’’

‘’Travel might not be as simple as it used to be but some of the initiatives we have rolled out is encouraging more people to book a holiday package. We are offering the option to tailor your travel experience to suit your needs and include travel insurance and any added extras in one booking. We are seeing bookings being made from customers that may not have considered the advantages of a holiday package before,’’ added Sreedharan.

The holidays by flydubai online portal has enhanced its offering by adding multiple booking flows:

  • Multi-city bookings allows customers to tailor-make their itinerary by combining multiple destinations
  • Stopover bookings allows customers to book a Dubai stopover package on the way from or to their final flydubai destination

  • Increased usability to the existing flight and hotel booking flows including the option to select a hotel stay for part of the total duration only.
