Saudi airlines Flynas launches flights from Jeddah to Baghdad

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) – Flynas, a Saudi Arabian airline, will start operating nonstop flights between Jeddah and Baghdad. The Saudi Air Connectivity Program (ACP) and Flynas worked together to resume flights to Baghdad, enabling Flynas to grow its network in Iraq. The first planned flight departed on September 1, 2023.

On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, three weekly scheduled flights will operate from Baghdad to Jeddah, establishing a new direct destination between Iraq and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The new air route will strengthen commercial relationships, draw more foreign investment to both economies, and ease transportation for tourists and Umrah performers between the two Arab countries.

Flynas began operating a weekly Wednesday and Sunday direct flight between Erbil and Jeddah earlier this year.

Regular flights between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Iraq have been resumed thanks to the efforts of the Saudi-Iraqi Coordination Council and their support.
