Expands International Connectivity from Pune with New Dubai Route, Adding to Recently Launched Pune-Bangkok Flights
Dailymirror.news, National, October 31st, 2024: IndiGo, India’s top airline, is launching daily direct flights from Pune to Dubai starting on November 22, 2024. This new route strengthens IndiGo’s international network by connecting Pune directly with Dubai, one of the most popular tourist and business hubs in the UAE. With this addition, IndiGo will now operate an average of 383 weekly flights from Pune, providing direct links to over 25 domestic destinations and two international routes.
Connecting Pune, a major center for IT and the automotive industry, with Dubai, a global hub of finance and commerce, will support economic growth across western Maharashtra. These daily flights will increase accessibility between the two cities, fostering new opportunities in business and employment for travelers.
Mr. Vinay Malhotra, Head of Global Sales at IndiGo, commented, “We are excited to launch daily, non-stop flights between Pune and Dubai, the thriving commercial city known for its luxury shopping and iconic architecture. With these flights, IndiGo now offers over 100 direct weekly flights to Dubai from 13 cities in India, totaling more than 225 weekly flights between the UAE and 18 Indian cities. As India’s favorite airline, we are dedicated to providing enhanced connectivity with affordability, on-time service, and a seamless travel experience for our customers.”
For Pune, which is among India’s largest hubs for IT and automotive industries, direct connectivity to Dubai is expected to stimulate trade, support economic development, and create broader business and cultural ties. Dubai, often called the “Venice of the Gulf,” is recognized globally for its high-end shopping, advanced architecture, and vibrant nightlife. The Pune-Dubai connection is likely to boost tourism and trade, further promoting economic collaboration between these regions.
Travelers can book flights through IndiGo’s website at goIndiGo.in or via the mobile app. This new connection is another step in IndiGo’s mission to strengthen international reach and offer accessible travel options for Indian passengers.
