Abu Dhabi: Rotana Jet announced on Thursday its aggressive expansion plan by introducing new destinations and increasing frequencies to its existing destinations.

“The already significant demand for air travel services between Abu Dhabi and other cities is expected to grow further in tandem with the many developments in the UAE and Rotana Jet wants to play a contributing role in connecting the capital with other cities — be it domestic, regional and international,” Shaikh Ahmad Bin Saif Al Nahyan, the Chairman of Rotana Jet Aviation, said in a statement.

He added that the air connectivity that Rotana Jet introduces to Abu Dhabi has a “positive impact on trade and comprehensive development of Abu Dhabi. It also increases tourism, provides choice for the consumer and supports air cargo shipments to and from regional and international canters”.

Rotana Jet expansion reaches new heights with the launch of flights between Abu Dhabi and Beirut, the Lebanese capital. Beirut is the company’s first destination in the Levant and its 11th worldwide.

Rotana Jet further stated it also intends to operate daily flights to Doha in Qatar and points in Egypt soon. In addition to the new destinations, frequencies to the existing destinations including Salalah, Muscat and Kuwait has been increased, the company said in a statement.
