Emirates Airlines provide connections to the selected flydubai destinations below, allowing passengers travelling with Emirates to connect to flydubai destinations not currently served by Emirates. Passengers will have a single booking and their baggage will be checked through at their point of boarding at Dubai Airport.
Here are some important things to know if you've purchased a ticket with Emirates and part of your journey is with flydubai.
As your booking is with Emirates, you'll need to contact Emirates to make any amendments to your travel plans. flydubai will not be able to assist.
Whether you're checking in with Emirates or flydubai, you need to hold a valid Emirates e-ticket and the correct documentation for acceptance at your final destination.
As you're travelling on an Emirates ticket, the Emirates baggage policy applies. So if you bring more baggage than the policy allows, you'll need to pay Emirates excess baggage charges.
When you check-in, your baggage will be tagged for your final destination - that means you won't have to collect it in Dubai.
At some airports, you'll be handed the boarding passes for your entire journey. At others, you'll only be given the boarding pass for your journey to Dubai, and then on arrival in Dubai, Emirates will issue another boarding pass for your onward flight.
With flydubai, you only pay for the optional extras you choose. So if you fancy a bite to eat when you're on board, there's a selection of hot and cold snacks, as well as soft and alcoholic drinks, available for purchase.
In Dubai, Emirates operates from Terminal 3 and flydubai operates from Terminal 2. If you arrive on an Emirates flight, you'll need to head to the central transfer desk in Terminal 3 (also known as transfer desk 'K') and if you arrive on a flydubai flight, you'll need to head to the transfer desk in Terminal 2.
At either desk, you'll be given a boarding pass for your onward journey (if you weren't given one when you checked in at the start of your journey). You'll then continue through security to board a bus for the relevant terminal before heading to the departure gate for your connecting flight
