flydubai resumes daily Chattogram–Dubai service, boosting South-Asia labour and trade links
Regional low-cost carrier flydubai has reinstated its **daily non-stop flights between Chattogram (CGP) and Dubai International’s Terminal 2** effective 1 April, the Arab Air Carriers Organisation confirmed in a 6 April notice. The route operates under the flydubai-Emirates codeshare, allowing single-ticket connections across Emirates’ global network and through-checked baggage.

For passengers now planning trips on the relaunched service, arranging the correct UAE visa is a key step. VisaHQ can simplify that process by letting Bangladeshi travelers apply online, track their application and receive expert guidance on document requirements—all in one place: https://www.visahq.com/united-arab-emirates/ Having paperwork sorted before arrival helps both workers and exporters avoid delays and make full use of the new daily frequency.

Chattogram (formerly Chittagong) is Bangladesh’s second-largest city and a key catchment for Bangladeshi skilled and semi-skilled workers employed in the UAE’s construction, maritime and service sectors. Daily capacity provides employers with a reliable pipeline for new hires and home-leave rotations, especially important as Dubai ramps up projects tied to its 2030 Urban Master Plan. For exporters, the service offers faster uplift of perishable seafood and garments to Dubai’s Jebel Ali logistics hub, cutting transit times by up to 24 hours compared with routings via Dhaka. The resumption also frees capacity on busier Dhaka–Dubai sectors, easing fare pressure during the Eid travel peak. flydubai suspended CGP flights in January 2024 due to runway works and then pushed back the restart twice amid the 2026 conflict. Its return underscores Dubai’s strategy of diversifying traffic sources while some European flows are curtailed.
