The budget-carrier reported net profit of Dh1.5 billion for 2023, up from Dh1.2 billion recorded in 2022. The airline’s turnover for the same period was Dh6 billion – a 14 per cent increase from Dh5.2 billion in 2022.
Air Arabia’s Board of Directors proposed a dividend distribution of 20 per cent of share capital, equivalent to 20 fils per share.

“The significant milestones attained in terms of growth, revenue, and profitability serve as a testament to Air Arabia’s robust business model, competent management team, and effective growth strategy.”
