flyadeal Adds Riyadh–Mumbai Capacity as Saudi-India Connectivity Expands
Saudi low-cost carrier flyadeal is set to launch a Riyadh–Mumbai service from October 3, 2026, adding another direct link between Saudi Arabia and one of India’s largest outbound markets.
The new route is significant for the B2B trade because additional Gulf capacity does more than connect two cities. Riyadh can function as a gateway for onward travel across Saudi Arabia, the wider Middle East, Europe and Africa, creating opportunities for multi-destination itineraries.
For Indian travel agents and tour operators, increased low-cost capacity could also support more competitive pricing and greater flexibility when building Saudi Arabia packages.
The route comes as Saudi Arabia continues to expand its tourism ecosystem and strengthen international connectivity. The market has already introduced a new Package Visa system designed to integrate visa applications with travel bookings.
For the Indian market, the growing network creates more options for leisure, religious, corporate and MICE travel while giving distributors another airline option beyond established Gulf carriers.
