According to the airline's statement, this is the first scheduled service to Pakistan and South Asia, and it also represents the beginning of the budget carrier's ambitious worldwide growth campaign.
Starting February 2, Riyadh, the Saudi capital, and Jeddah, the commercial powerhouse, will both offer twice-weekly flights to Karachi. Executive Chairman Steven Greenway has stated that further cities are on the way.
"Flyadeal is excited to announce that more cities in Pakistan are on the way, and I want to commend the Pakistani authorities and our planning team for their hard work in bringing this new market into our family of year-round destinations," Greenway continued.
"Given the commercial, pilgrim, and familial ties between the two countries, as well as the strong cultural and historical links between the Kingdom and Pakistan, it was essential that Flyadeal would open its newest air corridor," he stated.
