Flyadeal is celebrating yet another milestone, having flown 30 million passengers since its inaugural service, with a three-day sale of up to 30 per cent savings on all routes.

Valid until 29 August 2024, the offer is available for travel on all domestic and international routes between 1 September 2024 – 31 December 2024. Tickets are bookable now via the app or website.

The airline has carried its 30 millionth passenger, Abdulaziz Al Zahrani, on flight F3 317 from Jeddah to Dammam on 26 August 2024, with the lucky traveller earning a SAR1,000 travel voucher as others onboard relished in the celebratory atmosphere with surprise gifts.

“Since our inaugural flight on Saudi National Day in 2017, flyadeal’s single goal has been to stimulate travel across the Kingdom and beyond with our brand promise of low fares,” Steven Greenway, flyadeal Chief Executive Officer, said. 

In a bid to cement its position as one of the youngest and fastest growing low-cost airlines in the region, the airline has made significant strides in supporting the dynamic national aviation industry since launching operations almost seven years ago. 

The carrier currently operates a network of almost 30 domestic and international destinations from bases in Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam with a fleet of 33 aircraft.

In line with continued expansion, flyadeal has also upped its international footprint with the addition of new destinations and increasing flight frequency on existing routes. This summer, the carrier has placed a massive order for 51 new aircraft which is aimed at supporting the airline’s growth targets.

“It’s been a fantastic journey reaching the momentous 30 million passenger mark in just a short few years, demonstrating consumer confidence in flyadeal as we continue to fulfil our mandate of supporting national efforts to make flying accessible and enjoyable for all,” Greenway added.
