One of the most underrated places in the UAE has just been connected to an equally underrated destination in Russia. Air Arabia has started Ras al Khaimah to Kazan flights, linking the Emirati paradise to the Republic of Tatarstan in Eastern Europe.
This has brought the total number of destinations the airline is flying to in Russia to three, including Yekaterinburg and Moscow. It appears the UAE-Russia route is only about to get busier as people on both sides of the route take regular trips to explore and indulge in. Russia is famous for its landscapes and culture. You can find different landscapes in the same country, making it one of the best places to visit. For the UAE, the range of offerings is as broad as it can be. Starting from the nightlife in Dubai and cultural attractions in Abu Dhabi to museums in Sharjah and hiking trails in Ras al Khaimah, there is a lot to see and do here.
✈️ Our inaugural flight from Ras Al Khaimah to Kazan, Russia, has landed! The new non-stop service expands our growing network from Ras Al Khaimah, further strengthening connectivity and offering affordable travel between the UAE and Russia.
