However, the offer is very limited and flyers need to make travel arrangements fast before it expires in a few days. Customers also need to book for two people in order to avail themselves of the special fares.
A flydubai spokesperson confirmed that the deal is part of the airline's “companion” ticket promotion and is applicable to passengers who book an adult one-way or return fare in economy or business class from Dubai to select destinations.
Flyers also need to book before midday on Sunday, June 10 and fly by June 10, latest.
“The savings can be up to 50 per cent including taxes and surcharges, although it may vary from destination to destination and the date selected,” a spokesperson told Gulf News.
“The promotion, like all others, is designed to give passengers an incentive and more options for travel during Ramadan.”
