Flydubai's Match Day Shuttle service starts from DWC

Ghaith Al Ghaith, CEO at Flydubai, said: “It is an exciting day for all those who have been working tirelessly over the past few months to support the start of these special shuttle flights to Doha. flydubai is proud to be enabling more football fans to travel conveniently to Doha to take part in the world’s most exciting football tournament. The atmosphere here at DWC is palpable and I am happy to see enthusiastic fans starting their world cup journey with us. Almost all our flights departing to Doha International Airport (DIA) this morning and this afternoon were completely full; and this is a pattern that looks set to continue over the next couple of days and weeks.”

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank Qatar Airways for partnering with us to make these flights a reality, Dubai Airports for ensuring DWC is well placed to cater to these up to 30 daily flights and of course the flydubai team who will be working diligently around the clock to support these flights and ensure football fans have a smooth start to their journey and we thank our passengers for choosing flydubai. This is truly an event for the whole region and we are proud to be able to be part of it,” added Al Ghaith.
