Air Arabia stands as the pioneering and largest low-cost carrier (LCC) across the Middle East and North Africa region. The airline's strategic focus remains on expanding global connectivity, penetrating new markets, and continually enhancing operational efficiency and innovation. In the first half of 2025, Air Arabia significantly augmented its modern fleet with the addition of two aircraft, bringing its total to 83 owned and leased Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft. An ambitious order for an additional 120 new aircraft is anticipated to commence delivery by the end of 2025, underscoring the airline's robust growth trajectory. Furthermore, its network expanded by launching 13 new routes across key operating hubs in the UAE, Morocco, Egypt, and Pakistan during the same period.
