Air Arabia will begin operating its flights from King Fahd International Airport in Dammam, starting September 20, with three local destinations, including Riyadh, Jeddah, and Medina, after the consortium led by the company obtained the Air Operator Certificate (AOC) from the Saudi General Authority of Civil Aviation.
The alliance, which has a Saudi majority, consists of the “Air Arabia” group, the “Nesma” group, and the “Kun Holding” company, in a step that paves the way for the start of its operational operations from the eastern region and the expansion of the network of local and international flights in the future.
According to the operating plan, the carrier will operate two flights daily from Dammam to Riyadh and Jeddah, in addition to a daily flight to Medina, which will enhance air transport options between the Eastern Province and the main Saudi cities.
Adel Al Ali, CEO of Air Arabia, said that the start of operations from King Fahd International Airport represents a “strategic milestone” in the group’s growth journey, and reflects its orientation towards expanding economic air travel options in the Saudi market.
He added that the company's business model aims to enhance air connectivity to the Kingdom in general and the eastern region in particular, by adding more direct local and international destinations from King Fahd International Airport.
For his part, Engineer Mohammed bin Ali Al-Hassani, CEO of Dammam Airports Company, said that the launch of Air Arabia’s operations reflects the growing status of King Fahd International Airport and confidence in its operational capabilities, indicating that the next phase aims to enhance air connectivity and serve passenger traffic from the Eastern Region to local and international destinations.
Al-Hassani explained that the company is working to support the goals of the aviation sector within the national strategy for transport and logistics services, in line with the goals of “Saudi Vision 2030.”
The step comes within the framework of expanding air traffic from King Fahd International Airport, and enhancing competition for domestic flights from Dammam, in conjunction with the growth in demand for air travel and the expansion of the connectivity network between the Eastern Province and the rest of the Kingdom.
