Air Arabia will launch a double-daily flight from Gatwick to Sharjah from 29 March 2026.
The budget carrier will operate the flights to the UAE destination on an Airbus A321neo LR aircraft.
Air Arabia Group Chief Executive Officer Adel Al Ali said: “The launch of our new service to London Gatwick marks a significant milestone in Air Arabia’s ongoing growth journey. This expansion reflects our continued commitment to connecting our key markets with greater reach and convenience while delivering the value-driven travel experience Air Arabia is known for.”
London Gatwick Chief Commercial Officer Jonathan Pollard added: “Demand for flights to destinations across the Middle East has really taken off this year and we have been delighted to offer passengers across London and the South East an increasingly fantastic range of routes and choice of carriers.
“It is an exciting time for another operator to join London Gatwick following the recent government approval for routine use of our Northern Runway and we look forward to welcoming Air Arabia in March, serving the historic city of Sharjah and the wider Middle Eastern region.” – Travel Gossip
