Riyadh Air Connects Saudi Arabia to Pakistan with Direct Flights
Riyadh Air, Saudi Arabia's new national carrier, is expanding its international network by launching direct flights to Islamabad and Lahore in Pakistan. The airline has opened reservations for both routes and will operate its flights using the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner.
The Riyadh-Islamabad route will begin on August 14, with seven weekly flights connecting the two capitals. A few days later, on August 18, Riyadh Air will launch flights between Riyadh and Lahore, operating the route three times a week.
The addition of Islamabad and Lahore to its route network reflects the strong travel demand between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, offering travelers more direct flight options. The new services are expected to benefit business travelers, tourists, overseas Pakistanis, and passengers traveling for religious purposes.
