Checked against every return fare on sale as we write, this route has one price: AED 1,502, flat, on Air Arabia out of Sharjah — four fifths of the hundred cheapest fares. flydubai from Dubai was AED 1,557–1,571. Nothing else non-stop appeared. The only cheaper tickets are 16- to 20-hour double connections through Budapest or Bucharest, which is a strange way to make a three-hour trip.
Airlines on this route
Non-stop:
- flydubai — the only nonstop operator from Dubai itself, flying from Terminal 2 into Yerevan’s Zvartnots airport several times a week, at AED 1,557–1,571 return. A low-cost carrier, so fares are lean and extras are added on.
Non-stop from Sharjah:
- Air Arabia — from neighbouring Sharjah (SHJ), about 30 minutes from Dubai; a budget non-stop of about three hours, and the cheapest and commonest fare on the route in our check: a flat AED 1,502 return on four fifths of the fares we could price.
One-stop (slower, and rarely worth it):
- Connecting itineraries — carriers routing via Budapest, Bucharest, Larnaca or the regional hubs appear on this route. Some do undercut the non-stops — the cheapest we found was AED 946 — but they run 11 to 20 hours against about three, so read the timings before you take one.
When to book & how to save
- Book 4 – 8 weeks ahead for summer travel — July and August sell out fastest and cost the most.
- For the best value and mild weather, target April–May or late September–October, when fares ease but conditions are still good.
- Consider Sharjah (SHJ) as an alternate departure airport with Air Arabia — it is close to Dubai and can be noticeably cheaper.
- flydubai charges for checked bags and seats separately; price the bundle you actually need before comparing headline fares.
- Armenia offers visa-free or visa-on-arrival entry for many nationalities — check your own passport rules, but it keeps the trip simple for most Dubai residents.
Arriving in Yerevan
Flights land at Zvartnots International Airport (EVN), about 12 km west of central Yerevan. A metered taxi or ride-hail into the city takes 15 – 25 minutes and costs roughly AED 30 – 55 (around 4,000 – 7,000 Armenian dram). Public bus 201 runs to the centre for a few dram if you are counting every dirham, though a taxi is the easy choice after a late arrival.

The nonstop flydubai flight takes about 3 hours to 3 hours 15 minutes. It is a comfortable short-to-medium hop, so an evening departure gets you into Yerevan the same night.
Are there direct flights from Dubai to Yerevan?
Yes. flydubai operates the nonstop service several times a week from Dubai Terminal 2, at AED 1,557–1,571 return in our fare check. It is currently the only airline flying DXB–EVN direct — Emirates does not serve this route nonstop.

A typical economy return was AED 1,502 — the median, and also the flat price Air Arabia charged on four fifths of the fares we could price, non-stop from Sharjah. flydubai from Dubai was AED 1,557–1,571. The dearest fare in our whole check was AED 1,571, and the July–August peak pushes above that.
What is the cheapest month to fly to Yerevan?
January and February are usually the cheapest, with November close behind. If you want mild weather at a lower price, April–May and October offer the best balance of fare and conditions.
Which airlines fly nonstop from Dubai to Yerevan?
Only flydubai flies the route nonstop from Dubai itself, at AED 1,557–1,571 in our fare check. From nearby Sharjah, Air Arabia flies non-stop too and is both cheaper and far commoner — a flat AED 1,502 on four fifths of the fares we found.

How far ahead should I book?
Around four to eight weeks for summer, when demand is highest. Off-season you have more flexibility and can often book closer in without a big premium, but the nonstop’s limited weekly frequency means popular dates still fill up.
Which day of the week is cheapest to fly?
Midweek departures tend to be cheaper than weekend ones, which carry leisure and diaspora demand. Because flydubai runs the route only a few times a week, always compare the specific dates that fit your trip.
