flydubai on March 15 touched down in Milan Bergamo Airport (BGY) to a water cannon salute and warm welcome by the airport officials. This marks the start of flydubai’s five-times weekly operations to the city, growing its network in Italy to four points including Catania, Naples and Pisa.
Flights to Milan Bergamo Airport (BGY) started on March 10, 2023 with a five-times weekly service. The carrier will increase the frequency to a daily service from 18 April 2023. Emirates will codeshare on these routes and the flights will operate from Terminal 3 at Dubai International (DXB), offering travellers more seamless connections through Dubai’s international aviation hub.
Bergamo, a historic city in northern Italy, has been designated alongside Brescia as the Italian Capital of Culture for 2023. This prestigious title recognises the city’s vibrant cultural scene, with a year-long program of exhibitions, concerts, performances, and other events highlighting its artistic heritage and contemporary creativity. Milan Bergamo Airport offers passengers convenient access to the city with various transportation options including buses and private transfers.
Bergamo was clearly chosen by flyDubai because it is less than 50 kilometers from Milan, as well as being able to cover all that industrious part of Lombardy which also belongs to Monza, Brianza, Brescia, as well as the Orobic industrial district.
The flight is operated with Boeing 737-8 MAX 8 aircraft with 10 seats in lie-flat business class and 156 in economy class.
The carrier’s hospitality concept was extensively shown with a 5-minute video. All seats, even in economy, have a generously sized LED monitor.
