Air Arabia Abu Dhabi has launched a new service to two cities in Pakistan.

The flight to Faisalabad will commence on August 10 and Multan on August 11.

The twice-a-week service offers greater connectivity and value-for-money options for travellers.

Air Arabia Abu Dhabi was formed following an agreement by Etihad Airways and Air Arabia to establish the capital’s first low-cost carrier that follows the business model of Air Arabia and complements the services of Etihad Airways from Abu Dhabi thereby catering to the growing low-cost travel market segment in the region.

Currently, passenger flights between Pakistan and the UAE have been suspended until further notice.
