Flyadeal adds Pakistan to its route network in expansion drive

The airline said this marks the start of a major international expansion drive by Saudi Arabia’s leading low-cost airline.

Steven Greenway, flyadeal chief executive officer, said: “Building on the strong cultural and historical links between the Kingdom and Pakistan, and acknowledging the demand for air travel given the commercial, pilgrim and family ties of both countries, it was just a matter of time before flyadeal opened its newest air corridor.

“I would like to applaud the Pakistani authorities and our planning team for working diligently to bring a new market into flyadeal’s family of year-round destinations, with more cities in Pakistan in the pipeline. Having successfully operated Hajj charters to Pakistan this year, the two new Karachi routes also mark our entry into South Asia for the first time with scheduled services.”

Added Greenway: “After developing a solid domestic operation across Saudi Arabia over the years, international growth is now our focus during 2025 for what will be an exciting year of expansion as more aircraft join the fleet.”
