The new service departs from Terminal 2, Dubai International Airport (DXB), UAE, with a stop in  Penang International Airport (PEN) for a one-hour stopover before flying to Langkawi International Airport (LGK). Flydubai uses Boeing 737 MAX aircraft for the daily service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LADA reported on Saturday that the route’s opening would benefit Langkawi’s residents economically. The flight will bring in tourists from Dubai and visitors from West Asia, Europe, and Africa who fly Emirates and change flights to code-share partner Flydubai. The opening of the route by Flydubai company will offer a comfortable flight experience to passengers from over 120 destinations to Langkawi, Kedah, Malaysia via the  Dubai Air Hub in the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the welcome ceremony, LADA encouraged the island’s tourism industry players and local communities to “play a role in improving the quality of services and tourism products and promoting the island’s tourism together with the federal and state governments.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Penang State EXCO for Tourism and Creative Economy Wong Hon Wai welcomed the Flydubai flight that stop in Penang before flying to Langkawi on this auspicious first day of the Lunar New Year 2024.
