ISLAMABAD: Saudi Arabia’s fastest growing low-cost carrier Flyadeal has officially launched operations in Pakistan, launching direct flights to Islamabad and Peshawar.
Flight operations began on Monday from Bacha Khan International Airport, Peshawar, where the first flight from Riyadh was welcomed with a grand cake-cutting ceremony hosted by Menzies RAS.
The ceremony was attended by top officials from Pakistan Airports Authority (PAA), Airport Security Force (ASF) and Aviation Partners. Passengers can now fly directly between Riyadh and Peshawar twice a week.
Just a day earlier, on August 24, Flyadeal made a grand debut in Islamabad. Flight FAD 651/652 arrived at 6:08 am ahead of schedule, greeted with a traditional water cannon salute. The return journey saw a packed cabin with 172 passengers departing for Riyadh. The route will now operate every Sunday.
A cheerful PAA spokesperson hailed the development, saying that the arrival of Flyadeal will “revolutionize connectivity, increase travel options, and bring Pakistan and Saudi Arabia closer together.”
With these bold new routes, Flyadeal is set to transform affordable air travel for Pakistanis living in Saudi Arabia, making trips home faster, cheaper, and more convenient than ever before.
