Nearly two weeks after an attempted attack, Flydubai has contacted passengers from flight FZ 1073 via email. The airline offered passengers a "dedicated support desk" to address concerns stemming from the incident, but the email did not specify whether compensation would be provided. The message acknowledged the "distressing events" and emphasized the airline's commitment to passenger safety and well-being, stating they were relieved to have facilitated a safe arrival in Tel Aviv on a replacement aircraft. Flydubai also offered access to professional support services, suggesting passengers contact their regular healthcare providers or the airline's dedicated desk for assistance.
One passenger told N12 that the airline's outreach, occurring almost two weeks after the event, felt like a "desperate attempt to mitigate damages" from a potential future lawsuit, rather than a genuine effort to help. The passenger expressed surprise at the timing of the communication, suggesting it was not a sincere desire to assist the passengers.
