flydubai Holidays has expanded its holiday portfolio to more than 100 destinations and 10,000 hotels, as demand for international holiday packages, city breaks and beach holidays continues to grow. The airline's holidays division is also preparing to introduce an upgraded digital platform designed to make the holiday-booking experience more convenient for travellers.
The expansion gives travellers access to holiday packages across a range of budgets and travel preferences. Destinations currently featured in the portfolio include Almaty, Baku, Krabi, the Maldives, Tbilisi, Yerevan and Zanzibar, reflecting growing demand for destinations across Central Asia, Eastern Europe, Asia and other international markets.
The company said the growth is being supported by continued demand for packaged holidays and the expanding flydubai network. Its holiday offering includes fixed-itinerary packages at selected destinations, combining flights, hotel stays and excursions. Travellers can also use flydubai's Dubai stopover experience to combine a stay in Dubai with onward travel across the airline's wider network.
“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.” - Sudhir Sreedharan, Divisional Senior Vice President of Commercial Operations at flydubai
The company is also investing in its digital customer experience. The planned platform upgrade will include improved navigation, clearer content, enhanced mobile responsiveness and a more streamlined booking journey. Improved search and filtering functions are intended to help travellers find and manage holiday packages according to their preferences.
Demand is particularly visible across several emerging and established holiday markets. Nelson D'souza, Vice President of flydubai Holidays, said the company has seen consistent demand for both city breaks and beach holidays, particularly among travellers from the UAE, GCC and Central Asia. He also highlighted growing interest in destinations across Eastern Europe and Asia, as well as fixed-package itineraries and premium hotel and travel services.
“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.” — Nelson D'souza, Vice President of flydubai Holidays
Among the destinations recording strong growth are Baku, Krabi and Tivat. The seasonal Tivat route has been extended until October 23, while Bangkok, which launched with a daily service in July, is scheduled to increase to three daily flights from November 2026.
The expansion highlights the changing travel landscape, where customers increasingly seek convenience, flexibility, digital booking and bundled travel experiences. For the travel industry, flydubai's expansion demonstrates how airlines and holiday providers are combining broader destination networks with technology-driven booking experiences to respond to evolving traveller expectations.
With more than 100 destinations and 10,000 hotels, flydubai Holidays is positioning its holiday division as an increasingly integrated part of the airline's wider travel and connectivity offering.
