flydubai Holidays is broadening its destination roster and preparing to launch a redesigned digital platform as its holidays division reports continued growth driven by demand from UAE, GCC and Central Asia travellers.
The division already covers more than 100 destinations and 10,000 hotels. New additions include Almaty, Baku, Krabi, the Maldives, Tbilisi, Yerevan and Zanzibar, spanning city breaks, beach holidays and cultural itineraries across different budget levels.
The incoming digital overhaul centres on a modernised booking platform with improved mobile responsiveness, clearer navigation and enhanced search and filtering tools. The goal is to let customers plan and manage trips end-to-end from their phones.
“As part of our longstanding commitment to enabling free flows of tourism and passenger connectivity, we are pleased to see continued growth in our holidays division. Through our curated holiday packages, we are giving customers greater choice, flexibility and convenience when planning their holidays, supported by our growing network and a more intuitive, seamless digital experience. With more than 100 destinations and 10,000 hotels to choose from, customers have access to a wide range of experiences, and we expect this appetite for holiday packages to continue into the upcoming winter season. Customers travelling across our network to Dubai can either take advantage of our stopover experience in the city before exploring the rest of our diverse network,” Sudhir Sreedharan, Divisional Senior Vice President of Commercial Operations at flydubai said in a statement.
The strongest growth has come from Baku, Krabi and Tivat. The Tivat seasonal summer route has been extended to 23 October, and Bangkok has scaled quickly since launching in July, going from daily to triple-daily frequency from November.
“From city breaks to beach holidays, we have seen consistent demand from our customers, particularly across the UAE, GCC and Central Asia, who are increasingly looking beyond established holiday destinations to discover new experiences across Eastern Europe and Asia. There has also been a growing interest in our fixed-package itineraries, as well as premium hotels and services, reflecting a desire among customers to make the most of their holiday and have peace of mind. As we approach the end of the year, we anticipate more customers taking advantage of not only our packages in Dubai, but also in destinations across our network such as Kenya, Tanzania, the Maldives and Thailand,” Nelson D’souza, Vice President of flydubai Holidays added.
A Dubai stopover experience, introduced in March 2026, has also seen a positive response. It gives transit passengers access to exclusive rates on flights, hotels, attractions and activities during a Dubai layover before continuing to other network destinations.
Looking ahead, D’souza expects winter demand to concentrate on Kenya, Tanzania, the Maldives and Thailand alongside Dubai packages.
