Sharjah Airport welcomed the inaugural flight of Ukraine's Bees Airlines, arriving from Kiev International Airport. The flight was greeted by a water salute upon arrival at the Sharjah Airport runway after crossing the traditional water sprinkler arches.
Ali Salim Al Midfa, Chairman of Sharjah Airport Authority, welcomed the flight alongside Sheikh Faisal bin Saud Al Qasimi, Director of Sharjah Airport Authority, and Dr. Oleksandr Khomyak, Consul of Ukraine in Dubai. Also in presence were a number of officials from strategic partners at Sharjah Airport.
On this occasion, Ali Salim Al Midfa, Chairman of Sharjah Airport Authority, said, "We welcome Bees Airlines to Sharjah Airport and appreciate their choice in selecting Sharjah as a base and destination to add more traveling options for travellers between the two destinations. An elevated travel experience with our added range of integrated services provided by the airport, including a wider network of regional and international destinations, as well as opportunities to discover tourist and recreational attractions reflect our cultural heritage in the Emirate of Sharjah."
Bees Airlines seeks to take advantage of the increasing route demands and will be operating a Boeing 737-800 on a twice a week schedule every Monday and Saturday at 15:00. Bees Air has chosen Sharjah Airport due to its strategic location, services provided in accordance with the highest international standards, and quality infrastructure, which helps the aviation company continue its plans of expansion in the region. Additionally, the advanced tourism system, cultural, and entertainment components showcases the diversity that Sharjah enjoys as a tourist destination.
