Flydubai has extended the cancellation of its flights to and from Saudi Arabia, affecting passengers travelling between the UAE and several destinations across the kingdom. The airline said the decision was taken to ensure the safety of passengers and crew and to allow time for operational conditions to stabilise.
Customers booked on the affected flights are being contacted and offered options, including rebooking on a later date, rerouting where available, or a refund to the original form of payment. The airline urged travellers to check their booking status through its official website, mobile app, or customer service channels before heading to the airport.
Flydubai noted that it is closely monitoring the situation and working with the relevant authorities and partners to resume services as soon as conditions allow. The carrier apologised for the inconvenience and said its teams are doing everything possible to support affected passengers.
Saudi Arabia is one of the airline’s key markets, with regular services connecting business travellers, families, and pilgrims across the region. The disruption is expected to affect travel plans, particularly for those with urgent or time-sensitive journeys.
Aviation analysts advise passengers to remain flexible, keep their contact details updated with the airline, and consider alternative travel arrangements if necessary.
Further updates on the resumption of flights will be shared through the airline’s official channels as soon as they are confirmed. Passengers are encouraged to rely on official sources for the latest information.
