Emirates suspends codeshare with flydubai on Dubai‑Tel Aviv route after incident
Emirates has halted its codeshare agreement with flydubai for flights between Dubai and Tel Aviv following a suspected terrorist attack on a flydubai service. The incident involved flight FZ1073, which was forced to land in Saudi Arabia on a Wednesday, carrying 174 passengers, mostly Israeli citizens. The pilot and co‑pilot sustained injuries during the event.1
Saudi authorities refused to permit Israeli aircraft to retrieve the passengers, prompting Emirates to suspend the partnership as a safety response. The suspension affects the commercial link between the two carriers on the Dubai‑Tel Aviv corridor.1
