Air Arabia’s European expansion
Prague
Air Arabia, the low-cost airline based out of Sharjah, has added a string of new European routes to its flight network recently, making travel to the continent even more seamless – and affordable.
Those looking to check out the culinary and cultural highlights of Munich can now reach the city with a direct flight from Sharjah, while the architectural and creative highlights of Prague are also now a daily flight away with Air Arabia.
The new flight routes further enhance Air Arabia’s European network, which already includes Athens, Milan Bergamo, Krakow and Warsaw Chopin.
