Madurai to Dubai returns on 1 October
The route was out of the schedule for months. SpiceJet has now filed it again: SG23 leaves Madurai at 12:20 and SG24 leaves Dubai at 05:00, daily from 1 October 2026 and on through the winter season. It is not flying before that date.
Two more routes start the same day: Ahmedabad to Dubai daily, and Ahmedabad to Sharjah five days a week.
Why your flight can still change
Short notice delays are still common on these routes. Several SpiceJet Dubai departures ran late in early September and one Dubai to Kochi service was cancelled on 3 September, so check your flight before leaving for the airport.
EASA advises the airlines it regulates to avoid the airspace over Gulf waters until 30 September 2026. SpiceJet is an Indian carrier and is not covered by that, so it is context rather than a suspension.
How to check your flight
- SpiceJet flight status, by flight number or route.
- SpiceJet international schedule, to see if a direct service is filed for your date.
- SpiceJet on Wego, to compare it against other India to Gulf carriers.
Rebooking and refunds
If SpiceJet cancels or changes your flight, use its Change Assist portal to pick another flight or start a refund.
Its passenger rights page entitles you to an alternative flight or a refund on an airline cancellation. There is no special Gulf disruption waiver beyond that. If an agent issued your ticket, ask them. For the practical steps, see Wego’s SpiceJet flight cancellation guide.
