Frankfurt becomes Air Arabia’s second destination in Germany
Air Arabia will launch daily flights between Sharjah and Frankfurt this December, making the German city its second destination in the country after Munich.
The new nonstop service between Sharjah and Frankfurt Airport will begin on 15 December. The route will further expand the carrier’s European network and strengthen connectivity between the United Arab Emirates and Germany.
Flights will be operated by the Airbus A320neo. Frankfurt, one of Germany’s leading commercial, financial and tourism centres, will also provide passengers with access to Air Arabia’s wider network via its Sharjah hub.
Air Arabia has continued to expand its European network from Sharjah, with services to Milan BGY, Munich, Vienna, Athens, Prague, Krakow, Warsaw WAW, London LGW and Rome FCO.
Adel Al Ali, Group Chief Executive Officer of Air Arabia, said: “Frankfurt marks another important milestone in Air Arabia’s continued expansion across Europe and further enhances connectivity between the United Arab Emirates and Germany. As our second destination in Germany, the new route reflects the growing importance of the German market within our network and the strong demand we continue to see for travel between our two countries.”
He added: “Through our new daily non-stop service, we are providing our customers with greater choice, convenience and affordable connectivity, while supporting tourism, trade, and economic ties our two countries. We look forward to welcoming our customers onboard.”
Dietmar Focke, Chief Operating Officer at Fraport, noted: “By offering daily flights between Frankfurt and Sharjah, Air Arabia is creating an important new connection between the Frankfurt Rhine-Main region and the United Arab Emirates. The new destination ideally complements Frankfurt Airport’s existing network of services to the Gulf region. For passengers, the new service opens up additional travel opportunities and provides access to Air Arabia’s extensive route network. We extend a warm welcome to Air Arabia and look forward to a successful partnership.”
