Flydubai, a leading low-coast carrier in the region, will fly to Taif three times a week from February 1, making the city its seventh destination in Saudi Arabia.
“We are grateful to the Saudi authorities for their continued support of flydubai. Taif marks our seventh destination in Saudi Arabia and is part of our strategy to connect the UAE to destinations previously under-served by direct air links,” said flydubai CEO Ghaith Al Ghaith.
Situated 1,700 metres above sea level in the Hejaz province, Taif is a local beauty and holiday spot thanks to its temperate climate and beautiful scenery. With tree-lined streets, large souks and almost 3,000 gardens, the city is gaining prominence around the region as an alternative short-holiday destination. Located less than 100 km by road from Makkah, Taif is also an alternative gateway for travellers to the holy city.
Flydubai also flies twice daily to Dammam and Riyadh following increasing demand for flights between Dubai and two of Saudi’s main business hubs.
With the launch of operations to Taif, flydubai will operate a total of 55 weekly flights to destinations across Saudi Arabia.
I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move.
