In addition to its position as the 10th largest carrier from Dubai International Airport - which recorded passenger numbers of more than three million for October alone - the airline has secured significant year-on-year growth, with a 34% increase in total Guests uplifted from Dubai since October 2008.
The success of the airline in securing its number 10 position and significantly growing its total number of Guests come despite limited traffic rights faced by the airline throughout the summer.
Stefan Pichler, Jazeera Airways CEO commented:
"We are thrilled by these figures and the success that we have been able to achieve over the past year despite a number of restrictions, and we are looking forward to expanding our operations even further next year with the opening of the Al Maktoum Airport in Jebel Ali, in June 2010 and we hope that the current restrictions can be overcome."
The airline is poised for future growth plans to grow its network of regional destinations throughout the coming years.
Jazeera Airways currently operates a fleet of 10 new Airbus A320s. Each aircraft is fitted with the airline's signature leather seating, while the Jazeera Business Class cabin offers business travellers a little extra convenience including easy booking, special check-in counters, 40 kgs baggage allowance, access to airport lounges and exclusive in-flight service and entertainment. The airline flies to destinations in the Middle East, North Africa, Iran, and the Indian subcontinent.
