DUBAI: flydubai, the Dubai-based carrier, has officially launched its new Business Class check-in at Terminal 2, Dubai International (DXB). The dedicated space offers flydubai’s Business Class passengers a unique and smooth check-in experience with a personalised Meet and Assist service, seated check-in and a Fast Track service through passport control and security lanes.
This is the carrier’s first dedicated check-in facility for Business Class passengers and it is located at the Departures area at Terminal 2, Dubai International (DXB) near Entrance 3. The new space is designed to elevate the Business Class preflight experience and further underscores flydubai’s commitment to investing in enhancing the overall customer experience both on the ground and in the air.
Commenting on the new Business Class check-in, Ghaith Al Ghaith, Chief Executive Officer at flydubai, said: “we are excited to be extending to our Business Class customers the personalised service we offer them in our cabin on the ground as well. The new service will ensure our customers’ journey is efficient, hassle-free and enjoyable from the minute they arrive at Terminal 2 until they reach their destination. We continue to listen to our customers’ needs and invest in enhancing our products and services and we hope this is the first of many.”
The new Business Class check-in area features design elements that draw inspiration from the serene and timeless beauty of desert dunes. The sweeping arches, warm tones and minimalist aesthetics reflect the undulating landscape of the desert, creating an inviting space for customers seeking efficiency and comfort.
The new elevated experience starts prior to Business Class passengers arriving at the terminal with a dedicated Business Team available to assist with enquiries. A Dedicated Kerbside Drop-off Area and a separate Entrance for Business Class check-in have been allocated at Terminal 2, Dubai International.
Business Class customers can enjoy a personalised Meet and Assist service from a member of the Business Team and a dedicated complimentary porter service. The welcoming space offers a variety of personalised experiences, including a quiet space for relaxation with a traditional Arabic welcome offering refreshing towels followed by coffee, dates or refreshments. Inside the check-in area, customers can look forward to a smooth check-in process while a porter attends to their baggage, minimising waiting time and queues at the terminal.

The new Business Class check-in is now available to all flydubai Business Class customers travelling from Terminal 2, Dubai International. Customers who upgrade to Business Class prior to check-in can also use the new facility.
Today flydubai has built a growing network of more than 125 destinations in 55 countries across Africa, Central Asia, the Caucasus, Central and Southeast Europe, the GCC and the Middle East, the Indian Subcontinent as well as Southeast Asia.
