It operates over 112 weekly flights from its hub in Sharjah to the thirteen cities in India.

Air Arabia has a fleet of new Airbus A320 aircraft with a 32 inch seat pitch, which gives the best leg room of any economy class travel. The airline also provides visa assistance to passengers from India. With Air Arabia Holidays, the airline offers attractive packages to a wide range of international holiday destinations.
