TL;DR
On a Boeing 737 (small aircraft), FlyDubai's Dubai–Moscow route takes around 9–9.5 hours with a fuel stop in Islamabad (~1 hour on the ground). Larger aircraft fly direct in about 7–7.5 hours.
One traveler reported that on the return Moscow–Dubai flight, the plane rerouted around via Penza, with the whole flight taking about 7 hours (no Islamabad fuel stop mentioned).
Another traveler said their FlyDubai flight to Moscow was delayed 3 hours, but the flight itself took 7 hours; two meal services were provided onboard — a main meal followed later by a sandwich snack.
A recent traveler on FlyDubai to Moscow reported the flight took 9.5 hours instead of the expected 7.5, due to a fuel stop in Islamabad. The plane was on the ground for about an hour with passengers kept on board.
On a Boeing 737, the Dubai–Islamabad–Moscow route took just over 9 hours total: roughly 4 hours to Islamabad, a 1-hour fuel stop, then about 5 more hours to Moscow. Larger aircraft fly direct in around 7 hours.
On FlyDubai's smaller aircraft, a fuel stop in Islamabad is required, bringing total flight time to Moscow to around 9 hours. If you're on a larger plane, the flight goes direct in approximately 7 hours.
