Flydubai schedules Skopje launch

Flydubai will resume flights between Dubai and Skopje from April 1, 2027, over seven years after it suspended operations as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. Services will be maintained three times per week, on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays, from Emirates Airlines’ Terminal 3 at Dubai Airport, enabling a smoother transfer experience.

Commenting on the service resumption, Flydubai CEO, Ghaith Al Ghaith, said: “Connectivity is a key part of Dubai’s success as a global aviation hub. By linking markets that have limited direct air services with Dubai, At flydubai, we have always believed that connectivity unlocks opportunities for tourism, trade and cultural exchange. Over the years, we have connected many cities that previously had limited direct links to Dubai and the wider world. The return of Skopje reflects that continued commitment”. Jeyhun Efendi, Divisional Senior Vice President of Commercial Operations and E-commerce at Flydubai, added, “Europe continues to be an important part of our network strategy. The resumption of flights to Skopje gives our customers greater choice and flexibility, while providing an attractive one-stop travel option for leisure travellers, business travellers and the Macedonian diaspora from Australia and Asia. Our operations will commence with a three-weekly service and we are confident that demand will grow as more customers take advantage of the attractive Dubai stopover offering while connecting beyond the city.”

Flydubai’s return to Skopje, which has been in the works for several years, mark’s the resumption of nonstop services between Macedonia and the Gulf. Further flight details can be found here.
