О компании flydubai
flydubai is a state-owned low-cost airline founded in 2008 and based at Dubai International Airport (DXB), where it operates from Terminal 2 and increasingly from Terminal 3 alongside its sister carrier Emirates. The airline was set up specifically to serve markets that Emirates did not fly to with its widebody fleet, focusing on underserved regional routes across the Middle East, the Caucasus, Africa, and South Asia. flydubai's fleet stands at roughly 80 aircraft built around the Boeing 737-800 and 737 MAX 8, with a selection of 737 MAX 9 deliveries continuing. The carrier does not belong to a global alliance, but its close codeshare and connection partnership with Emirates is one of the most important features of its product for Georgian travelers. Through this partnership, a flydubai flight from Tbilisi can be sold on a single ticket with an onward Emirates widebody to Australia, Southeast Asia, or Africa, with one bag tag and a single check-in. From Tbilisi (TBS) flydubai operates non-stop flights to Dubai, and from Batumi (BUS) it adds seasonal direct service tied to the Black Sea summer schedule, which makes it the most consistent direct option from western Georgia to the UAE. Round-trip economy fares from Tbilisi to Dubai on flydubai typically sit in the 350 to 550 USD band, with peak season (UAE winter, around November to February) and Georgian holiday windows pushing higher. The fare structure is split into Economy Lite, Economy Value, Economy Flex, and Business. Economy Lite is carry-on only (7 kg) and is the cheapest published fare; Economy Value adds 20 kg of checked baggage and seat selection, and is usually the fare that makes most sense for travelers carrying a suitcase. Business Class allows 2 checked bags up to 32 kg each, lounge access at DXB, and lie-flat seating on long-range routes. Onboard, economy passengers can pre-purchase meals and a paid streaming entertainment service to mobile devices; business class includes meal service and onboard entertainment screens. For Georgian travelers using Dubai as a connection point, flydubai through-ticketed itineraries to Maldives (MLE), Bangkok (BKK), Phuket (HKT), Bali (DPS), and many destinations in East Africa are bookable on a single ticket. Self-connected itineraries (separate flydubai plus Emirates tickets) are technically possible but lose the missed-connection protection, so the through-ticket option is strongly preferable. Online check-in opens 24 hours before departure on flydubai.com and via the mobile app. Visa-on-arrival is available to Georgian passport holders entering the UAE for tourism, but onward transit through Dubai to other countries follows the destination's rules, so check before booking. FlyGE shows flydubai on every Tbilisi and Batumi to Dubai search and lets travelers compare its unbundled fare structure against the all-in pricing of Emirates and the connecting routings on Qatar Airways through Doha. The Open program is flydubai's frequent flyer scheme and miles can be transferred to and from Emirates Skywards, which is useful for Georgian travelers who occasionally fly the Emirates long-haul product on top of regular Tbilisi to Dubai trips. For travelers connecting onward from Dubai onto Emirates within 24 hours, the through-checked baggage is delivered straight to the final destination, so Georgian passengers heading to Bangkok or the Maldives on a flydubai plus Emirates ticket do not need to collect and re-check bags in Dubai. Booking three to six weeks ahead generally produces the best published fares on the Tbilisi to Dubai sector, with last-minute pricing rising sharply on weekend departures. The Emirates-flydubai partnership is unusually deep for two non-alliance carriers: bookings made on emirates.com or flydubai.com can include flights on either airline as a single PNR, with through-checked baggage, shared lounges at DXB for premium passengers, and aligned check-in counters. Skywards status earned on Emirates extends to flydubai for priority boarding, additional baggage, and lounge access on connecting itineraries. Beyond Emirates, flydubai has a limited codeshare with TUI Airlines and a few regional African carriers but does not participate in Star Alliance, Oneworld, or SkyTeam, so a flydubai segment will not credit miles to Miles&More, Miles&Smiles, or Qatar Privilege Club. Recent route announcements relevant to Georgian travelers include increased Tbilisi to Dubai frequency for 2025-26 with additional weekend rotations, new Batumi to Dubai seasonal service tied to UAE winter holiday demand, and onward expansion through Dubai to additional Indian secondary cities such as Kannur and Ahmedabad. flydubai has also continued its Boeing 737 MAX 8 deliveries to support fleet renewal. Common service issues for Georgian travelers center on the unbundled fare model: the Economy Lite fare often surprises first-time flydubai customers because it includes only a 7 kg carry-on and excludes seat selection, food, and onboard entertainment beyond the paid streaming option. Travelers carrying a checked suitcase should always compare Economy Lite plus added bag against Economy Value, which usually saves 20 to 40 USD round trip after add-ons. Schedule reliability is generally good but Dubai-area thunderstorms in summer can produce knock-on delays; building 2 hours of layover when connecting to Emirates long-haul is the safe practice. Compared to Emirates on the same Tbilisi to Dubai route, flydubai offers comparable schedule reliability at a lower price for the base fare; the gap narrows once a checked bag and meal are added. For Georgian travelers using Dubai as a leisure destination rather than a transit point, the price difference between flydubai Economy Value and Emirates economy is often only 30 to 60 USD round trip, which makes Emirates worth considering for the included full-service onboard experience. Against Qatar Airways via Doha for onward connections to Bangkok, Phuket, or the Maldives, a flydubai plus Emirates through-ticket via Dubai is typically priced similarly but offers the choice of Emirates widebody on the long-haul leg rather than Qatar's A350 or 777. Against Turkish Airlines via Istanbul, flydubai is the more direct option for travelers whose final destination is the UAE itself; for onward Asia connections Turkish Airlines via Istanbul is often cheaper but loses the through-checked baggage convenience of the flydubai-Emirates partnership.
