FlyDubai ‘revalidating procedures’ after airport holdup of Israelis over visas
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAfter several hundred Israelis were held up for hours in Dubai over a visa mixup this morning, the UAE says that “the policy permitting the entry of Israeli citizens remains unchanged, and Israeli citizens continue to be welcomed to the UAE.”
It adds that the company that operated the flight, FlyDubai, “has apologized to the affected passengers” and is “reviewing the reasons behind the delay and is revalidating the processes and procedures to prevent any delays to subsequent flights.”
Meanwhile, some Hebrew media reports claim that until a visa waiver agreement goes into effect in the near future, Israelis may be forced to pay an additional $90 for visas.
