Air Arabia LLC, the Middle East region's first and only low-fares airline, has added two more flights to the timetable for Jeddah, Dammam and Riyadh, to meet increasing demand over the summer season. With the addition of the new flights, Air Arabia flies from Sharjah six times a week to Dammam and four times a week to Jeddah and Riyadh.
“KSA is an important route for both business and leisure travellers and demand has risen rapidly since we launched last summer. Summer is a peak time, with people returning home to visit family and friends or travelling to Makkah,” commented Harish Kutty, Head of Planning & Revenue Management for Air Arabia. “We take great pride in the fact that we have been able to offer the opportunity to more people to undertake this sacred journey.”
With four flights a week to Jeddah, Air Arabia offers a convenient connection to Makkah, which lies in close proximity. Air Arabia provides an affordable link between KSA and the UAE, for holiday makers to explore the region and experience the kaleidoscope of activities and festivals available, such as the Dubai’s Summer Suprises; a festival of fun and promotions for the whole family.
