Fly Dubai airline can more likely be compared to a stage artist who takes his spontaneous entry and wins audiences’ hearts and become the apple of eye to them. This must sound weird for one who doesn’t know the history of this airline. Incepting from a small budget and low cost services, flyDubai debuted in 2009 and sooner or later became first choice of the passengers all over UAE. This journey didn’t take place with that ease but with a good many complexities and trials behind.
Flydubai is not basically a part of The Emirates Group but it helped its level best out in the initial phase of Flydubai’s flights and services. In the early days of Flydubai, it relied somehow on Emirates for most of its back office functions. It’s today that flyDubai made it possible to make its own infrastructure that too along with being a low cost airline and all the visible links are now seemed to come from Flydubai. Many other statistical and apparent factors that cause to make it a better choice are discussed as under!
Highly raising budget carrier
Most recently, Fly Dubai’s debut Islamic bonds are attracting the attentions for Sukuk from aviation companies in gulf. In a recent sale the budget carrier of Fly Dubai raised from $500 million that was way too large than that of Emirates.
One of its impacts is that gulf cities including Dubai are investing $40 billion on infrastructure of Fly Dubai making it much better and successful.
Quality infrastructure
Infrastructure of Fly Dubai is one that is blindly remarkable. Its double storied, grey, prefabricated headquarters are near Dubai international airport’s Terminal 2 with its elegantly styled décor and widely scrammed restaurants. The airline has got a fleet of 22 aircrafts which is a good one for an amateur airline. More than good in fact.
Accelerating routes’ count
The airline has its routes to almost 50 destinations across 27 countries. It keeps on increasing the number of routes without collapsing its services. It is now successfully operating alongside Emirates on trunk routes and also it has taken a step forward as compared to Emirates by building up operations in secondary markets too, in Saudi Arabia.
Flawless services and facilities
Flydubai has not earned this success for nothing but it has proven to be better than many airlines in many categories, from emirates too. Flawless features include best food and drink services, medicine in reach, comfortable and wide seats and still working to make it much better.
With one of the best facilities providing services lately as well, Flydubai decided to commence business class service to its flight. It included the features like three course meals, 12 inch television, Italian leather seats, access to plenty of movies and what not. You just name it and have it!
Entertainment
You just don’t travel while you are going through Fly Dubai but it makes your journey as entertaining as possible. All its new aircrafts are coming with a fiber optics based in-flight entertainment system from Lumexis. It tends to offer the passengers the best part of their journey that is 150 movies, games, news and other applications like maps etc.
Convenience for staff
The crew and staff of Flydubai is highly satisfied with the facilities and convenience plans provided to them. There is no overnighting and the pilots are expected to live near airport for being punctual and manage their time. This is followed by a good salary and accommodation services for the staff that lacks in any other airline including Emirates.
Training and recruitment sessions
Of all the mentioned plus points of Flydubai, we have last but not least factor that makes it an exception. Flydubai has struggled to open training center next to Dubai International’s terminal 2 and has joined hands with CAE to be anchor tenant. This is something that emirates never came up with even after becoming such a high success and being a wealthy airline.
