IndiGo expands UAE connectivity
On the new flight service to Fujairah, IndiGo said the expansion is part of its strategic global growth plan, besides to further strengthen its presence in the Middle East.
Its newly launched direct flight to Fujairah from Mumbai, followed by direct services from the Kerala city of Kannur, is aimed at catering to the growing demand for travel from both business and leisure travellers, the airline said.
