flyadeal, one of the youngest and fastest-growing low-cost airlines in Saudi Arabia and across the Middle East, participated in the leading annual Hajj and Umrah Forum in Egypt on Monday as a key air service provider of pilgrim travel to the Kingdom.

Hosted at The Nile Ritz-Carlton Cairo, the two-day exhibition welcomed more than 3,000 travel and tourism professionals, showcasing products and services offered to groups planning their pilgrimages.

flyadeal had a dedicated exhibition stand staffed by a team of sales and customer support personnel who engaged with visitors and assisted with planning arrangements for the year-long Umrah and annual Hajj pilgrimage.

Rakan Alotaibi, flyadeal head of sales, Hajj & Umrah and commercial regulatory affairs, said: “flyadeal is pleased to participate, once again, in this forum and work closely with Egypt’s Hajj and Umrah Committee.

“This was an important event that brought together industry professionals and travel suppliers specializing in pilgrim travel to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. We had the opportunity to share information with visitors about flyadeal, our products and dedicated on-the-ground support services in the Kingdom. Additionally, the event offered us a platform where we reaffirmed our commitment to offering affordable low-cost travel focused on service excellence.”

The event included participation from airlines, hotels, Hajj and Umrah ground service operators, as well as tour companies and travel agents that have dedicated pilgrim travel services.

As part of flyadeal’s continued efforts to support religious traffic from Egypt and countries across the world to the Kingdom, the airline works closely with travel partners to facilitate year-round pilgrimages to Saudi Arabia with convenience and comfort being at the heart of its operations. Cairo is one of the major international destinations served by flyadeal with dedicated routes to Jeddah, Riyadh and Dammam.
