Flydubai has resumed passenger services to Tbilisi after the authorities in Georgia eased international travel restrictions from February 1.
The Dubai-based carrier said it will operate twice-weekly flights from Dubai International (DXB) to Tbilisi International Airport (TBS).
Nationals and residents of the UAE and Bahrain can now travel to Tbilisi if they have a negative COVID-19 PCR test result taken no more than 72 hours before the departure time of the flight.
Visitors will have to take a further COVID-19 PCR test, at their own expense, on the third day after entering Georgia.
Alternatively, passengers who hold a COVID-19 vaccination certificate will also be able to travel.
"We have steadily grown our network to more than 65 destinations and are pleased to restart our operations to Tbilisi. We will continue to launch flights to more destinations as restrictions ease in countries within our geographic reach," said Jeyhun Efendi, Senior Vice President, Commercial Operations and E-commerce at Flydubai.
Flight Details:
Flights from Dubai International (DXB) to Tbilisi International Airport (TBS) will operate on Mondays and Thursdays and the service commenced on January 28.
