Pegasus Airlines begins flights from Stansted to Dubai
Operating four times a week, this new link is already proving popular and joins other Middle East connections on the Pegasus route network that include Tel Aviv, Tehran and Beirut.
Speaking on behalf of Stansted Airport, Commercial Director, Jonathan Crick commented: "This new connection to Dubai is a very exciting proposition and to see passengers checking in today, less than a month after Pegasus announced the new link via Istanbul, endorses our belief there is appetite and demand for mid and long-haul services from Stansted."
"We have seen great interest in our Dubai connection since ticket sales went live," said Peter Mantle, Head of UK Sales and Operations for Pegasus Airlines.
"Direct flights to Istanbul from Stansted were increased to twice daily earlier this year and I’m delighted to be here again celebrating yet another landmark event with the launch of our fourth Middle East connection."
