The airline will operate 24 weekly flights to Saudi Arabia, including daily flights to the capital Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam. It will also operate three weekly flights to Madina. Flights to Riyadh will increase to double daily from September 16.

Saudi Arabia had on September 8 removed the UAE from its banned countries list as daily Covid cases fell significantly over the past few days. The UAE reported a new low of 772 Covid-19 cases on Thursday, even as it holds the highest percentage of fully vaccinated residents.
As on September 9, over 89 per cent residents have received at least one dose of the vaccine, while over 78 per cent have received both.
Travel agents in the UAE said they expect a spike in demand for travel between the two countries – particularly among stranded travellers and those who wish to perform the religious pilgrimage of Umrah.
