Riyadh Air opens Dhaka-Riyadh daily flight ticket sales.
Riyadh Air today opened ticket sales for its
daily direct flights between Dhaka and Riyadh, ahead of the launch of the
service on August 7, marking a significant expansion of air connectivity
between Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia.
According to a press release issued by the airline, the new route will
connect Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (HSIA) in Dhaka with King
Khalid International Airport in Riyadh using the airline's Boeing 787-9
Dreamliner aircraft.
The daily service is expected to strengthen travel, trade and tourism links
between Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia while providing passengers with
convenient onward connections to destinations across the Middle East and
Europe through Riyadh Air's growing network and codeshare partnerships.
The new route reflects its commitment to one of South Asia's fastest-growing
aviation markets and supports the long-standing bilateral relationship
between Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia, according to the airline.
Under the flight schedule, flight RX0763 will depart Riyadh at 9:20 pm and
arrive in Dhaka at 6:10 am the following day while return flight RX0764 will
leave Dhaka at 7:40 am and land in Riyadh at 10:55 am, all in local time.
Riyadh Air said the new service will create greater opportunities for
business, leisure and academic travel while positioning Riyadh as an
important transit hub for Bangladeshi passengers travelling to international
destinations.
The airline noted that Bangladesh's growing outbound travel market and close
economic ties with Saudi Arabia make the route an important addition to its
expanding global network.
Passengers can purchase tickets through the Riyadh Air website, mobile
application and authorised travel agents.
The flights will be operated by Riyadh Air's Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners
featuring four cabin classes-- Business Elite, Business, Premium Economy and
Economy-- equipped with next-generation in-flight entertainment, wireless
connectivity and enhanced passenger comfort.
Riyadh Air, Saudi Arabia's new national carrier, is expanding its
international network as part of the Kingdom's broader aviation strategy
aimed at strengthening global connectivity and supporting the country's
tourism and economic diversification goals.
