flyadeal will launch new flights between Jeddah and Dubai and reinstate services from Riyadh to Dubai from April 15, as the carrier expands its footprint in the UAE market.
The airline will introduce three weekly flights from Jeddah to Dubai International Airport, marking its first direct service on the route, while Riyadh–Dubai operations will resume at daily frequency and gradually increase to up to four flights per day.
The expansion is aimed at strengthening connectivity between Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, targeting both business and leisure demand. Jeddah, a major commercial centre and key gateway for religious tourism, is expected to play an important role in supporting traffic flows to and from the Kingdom.
flyadeal said the move reflects continued demand for travel to Dubai, one of the region’s busiest aviation hubs, and forms part of its broader strategy to grow its international network.
The airline has rapidly expanded in recent years, operating a fleet of 46 Airbus A320 family aircraft from bases in Jeddah, Riyadh, Madinah and Dammam. It currently serves more than 40 destinations across Saudi Arabia, the Middle East, Europe, North Africa and South Asia, and plans to more than double its fleet and network to over 100 aircraft and destinations by 2030.
