Saudia has resumed its direct flights from Jeddah and Riyadh to Al Wajh Airport in the northern Red Sea, with 5 flights a week, in a move aimed at strengthening domestic air connectivity and providing wider travel options between the Kingdom's regions.
Saudia has allocated two weekly flights between Jeddah and Al Wajh, as well as 3 weekly flights between Riyadh and Al Wajh, helping to facilitate travel to and from Al Wajh governorate and supporting access to the northern Red Sea region and nearby coastal destinations, according to a post on Saudia's LinkedIn account.
The return of flights to Al Wajh is part of Saudia's efforts to develop its domestic network and raise its operational efficiency, as well as supporting access to promising tourist destinations on the Red Sea coast, including AMAALA.
Flights can be booked through Saudia's website, smartphone apps, sales offices and approved travel agents.
Red Sea Global announced in October 2023 that it had been tasked with developing and renovating Al Wajh Airport as part of its expanded project portfolio, as a gateway supporting access to northern Red Sea destinations, including AMAALA, with the airport's facilities and infrastructure developed to operational standards aimed at supporting tourism and economic activity in the region.
