The aircraft is ready for flight and is scheduled to begin operations next week.
Mr. Al Khalidi explained that these measures are based on the directives of Dr. Rashad Al Alimi, Chairman of the Presidential Guidance Council, and include increasing the number of flights from Al Rayyan Airport and Sayun Airport to Jeddah, in addition to expanding the number of overseas destinations, including Dammam City, in the coming period.
