Emirates and flydubai have collaborated to provide travelers with a broad network of over 225 destinations across more than 100 countries. This partnership allows Emirates customers access to 118 flydubai destinations, while flydubai passengers can reach 136 Emirates destinations. Popular travel spots include Baku, Krabi, Naples, and Zanzibar.

The alliance offers an average of 275 codeshare flights daily, enhancing schedule flexibility for passengers. Since the collaboration began in 2017, over 1.5 million flights have been operated, carrying more than 19 million passengers—equivalent to the populations of Paris and New York City combined.

Travelers benefit from streamlined experiences on the ground with efficient check-in processes, baggage transfers, optimized flight schedules, and improved connectivity at Dubai Airports' Terminal 3. Flydubai operates over 300 weekly flights from Terminal 3 to destinations like Kathmandu and Zanzibar. Business Class travelers on flydubai can utilize a new check-in area at Terminal 2 offering personalized services.

Access to premium airport lounges is another advantage for passengers. Over seven years, more than 250,000 flydubai passengers have used Emirates’ lounges in Terminal 3.

The loyalty program Emirates Skywards serves both airlines by providing members with a single currency for rewards. With over two million members from more than 190 countries, benefits include extra baggage allowance and priority check-in for Platinum, Gold, and Silver Tier status holders. The program has recently adjusted its Cash+Miles rates on flydubai flights for better redemption value.

Both airlines are committed to expanding their partnership's reach and enhancing travel experiences through Dubai. Emirates is retrofitting over 200 aircraft with Premium Economy seats as part of its upgrade program. Flydubai is also investing in premium experiences by retrofitting aircraft and launching a dedicated Business Class check-in area at Terminal 2.

Tickets are available via emirates.com, flydubai.com, the Emirates App, retail stores, contact centers or travel agents.

"From world-class on-ground services in Dubai," said an Emirates Public Relations spokesperson "to adding new bucket-list destinations...customers are guaranteed the latest and greatest in air travel."
