Saudi airline flynas named Best Low-Cost Airline in the Middle East for 7th consecutive year

Saudi Arabia’s flynas has been named the Best Low-Cost Airline in the Middle East for the seventh time in a row by a leading industry body.

The carrier was also ranked in the top three low-cost airlines in the world by the International Skytrax Organization, the global authority for assessing airline performance.

Bander Al-Mohanna, CEO of flynas, received the gong for the firm’s Middle East ranking during the annual Skytrax Awards ceremony held in London.

“Consolidating our position among the top four in the low-cost aviation sector worldwide and being named the Best LCC in the Middle East for the seventh time in a row, according to Skytrax awards, is a success in the name of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” Al-Mohanna said

“The Kingdom is at the forefront of the world’s countries in various fields, especially in the travel, tourism, and aviation sectors, which have received significant attention and goals of Saudi Vision 2030,” he added.

Al-Mohanna attributed the achievement to the enduring loyalty of their guests, the dedication of their team, and the tremendous support that all Saudi companies enjoy from the government.

“Scooping the award for the seventh time in a row reflects flynas’ persistent commitment to excellence in products and services within the expansion and growth plan we launched under the slogan ‘We Connect the World to the Kingdom,’” he added.

Al-Mohanna explained that this aligns with the objectives of the National Civil Aviation Strategy, which aims to enable national air carriers to connect the Kingdom with 250 international destinations, accommodate 330 million passengers, and host 100 million tourists yearly by 2030.

He also noted that it supports the objectives of the Pilgrims Experience Program to facilitate access to the Two Holy Mosques.

Skytrax Awards are decided yearly by passenger votes through comprehensive surveys and are among the most coveted awards in the aviation industry worldwide.

Flynas connects more than 70 domestic and international destinations with over 1,500 weekly flights, aiming to reach 165 destinations, in line with the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030.
