How to find cheap flights from Dubai to Tbilisi
- Buy your tickets 1.5–2 months in advance.
- Choose a midweek departure rather than a weekend: demand for travel is lower on working days, so fares tend to be cheaper.
- Book both directions at once. Airlines and agencies usually offer better prices for a return ticket than for two one-way tickets bought separately.
- Use a search engine that brings together almost every airline and flight, so that booking the ticket you want becomes much easier.
You can book flights to and from Dubai online quickly and comfortably using our search engine. Simply choose your departure and destination cities, enter the dates you want, and our system will show you every available flight, so you can pick the ticket that fits your budget.
Which airport and terminal do the flights leave from?
Flydubai’s Dubai – Tbilisi flights depart from Terminal 2 of Dubai International Airport (DXB), so head for Terminal 2 rather than the main Terminal 3 when you get to the airport. Air Arabia flights leave from Sharjah International Airport (SHJ), roughly a 30–40 minute drive from central Dubai — allow extra time for the journey.
In both cases you land at Tbilisi International Airport (TBS), about 17 kilometres from the city centre.
How often do the flights operate?
Flydubai serves the Dubai – Tbilisi route almost daily, with more than ten flights a week, while Air Arabia offers up to two flights a day from Sharjah to Tbilisi. Schedules change with the season — there are more flights in summer than in winter — so check the exact days and departure times when you book.
The time difference between Dubai and Tbilisi
Georgia and the United Arab Emirates are in the same time zone (UTC+4), and Georgia does not move its clocks for summer time. That means there is no time difference on the Dubai – Tbilisi route and jet lag is practically a non-issue — you can start exploring on the day you arrive.
Do travellers from the UAE need a visa?
- Citizens of the United Arab Emirates can enter Georgia without a visa and stay for up to one year.
- Nationals of other countries who hold a valid UAE residence permit can enter Georgia visa-free for up to 90 days within any 180-day period.
Visa rules change from time to time, so check the current requirements on the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Georgia before you travel.
Baggage and fare conditions
Both Flydubai and Air Arabia sell low-cost fares that often include hand baggage only, with checked baggage sold separately. When you compare the cheapest tickets, always look at:
- how many kilograms of hand baggage the fare includes;
- the price of adding checked baggage — adding it online, while booking, is almost always cheaper than at the airport;
- the fees for seat selection, meals and changes to your booking.
Getting from Tbilisi Airport into the city
- Bus — a regular city bus connects the airport with the centre of Tbilisi; this is the cheapest option.
- Taxi — available around the clock; it is best to use a ride-hailing app so that the price is fixed in advance.
- Transfer — if you land at night or travel as a group, a pre-booked transfer is the most comfortable solution.
You can exchange currency or withdraw cash at the airport itself — the national currency of Georgia is the lari (GEL).
