The two new aircraft arrived at King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah this weeks, doubling its fleet size to serve pilgrims, Umrah performers and visitors.

It’s expected to start operating the two aircraft next March 2023, as they will contribute to boosting the operation capacity and increasing the number of passengers on new medium-to-long-haul destinations, in line with the National Civil Aviation Strategy and the National Tourism Strategy.

With its growth and expansion strategy launched early 2022, Flynas aims to connect the world with the Kingdom and reach 165 domestic and international destinations. The Saudi air carrier connects more than 70 domestic and international destinations, and has transported more than 60 million passengers since its establishment in 2007.

Flynas announced recently that its Board of Directors approved increasing orders for new aircraft to 250 aircraft, to make it the largest low-cost airline in the Middle East and North Africa.
