Flydubai becomes the first UAE airline to connect Dubai to the futuristic smart city in north-western Saudi Arabia. The airline will operate flights to Neom Bay Airport twice a week from March 16, on Thursdays and Sundays. The flights will depart from terminal 3 in DXB, with a flying time of under three hours.

Apart from Flydubai, Saudi’s national airline is the only other airline which operates between Dubai and Neom.  Saudia Airlines launched the first commercial flights from Neom Bay Airport to Dubai in June 2022. The weekly round-trip flight is operated via aircraft sporting special Neom-Saudia livery, in an effort to showcase the megacity to the world.

Due to open in 2025, Neom is a town in Saudi Arabia’s Tabuk region that lies at the confluence of three continents. Neom Bay Airport, which was built to serve the multibillion-dollar gigaproject, is roughly four hours’ flight time away from 40% of the world’s destinations.
