The Middle East metropolis was the first in the world to be chosen as a “Safe Destination”, recommended by the World Tourism Organisation, thanks to the measures taken to ensure the health and safety of visitors.

Accordingly, the Dubai-based airline company complies with all hygiene requirements in relation to the pandemic:

• Boarding from Budapest can only be realised with a valid, printed, negative PCR test in English or Arabic. In the case of other departure locations, local regulations apply.
• Passengers are provided with a hygiene kit upon boarding and are required to wear a mask throughout the flight and at the airports.
• Aircraft are regularly disinfected with a special antiviral chemical.
• The clean air in the cabin is ensured by the so-called HEPA system, which filters out 99.9 per cent of viruses and fungi, so the air on the plane is completely changed every 2-3 minutes while travelling.
• In addition to their uniforms, flight attendants shall wear protective equipment manufactured for this purpose, and the on-board menu shall be served in hygienic packaging.
• At Dubai Airport, non-contact body temperature measurements are performed, and check-in is completely non-contact.
