“We are proud of flynas’ performance and results in 2023, which reflect the strength of our business model, the distinguished effort made by our team, and the effectiveness of our strategic plan for growth and expansion,” said Bander Almohanna, flynas CEO and Managing Director.
“Our continued investments to increase the fleet size and destinations network have contributed to enhancing our leading regional and global position and to advance in the Skytrax classification, the most prestigious reference in the aviation industry, to be among the top 4 LCC in the world and the best in the Middle East,” Almohanna added.
This new route, set to commence operations from January 10, 2024, will connect Sharjah International Airport directly to Kabul International Airport on a daily basis. To facilitate bookings for this new route, customers can reserve their seats by accessing Air Arabia’s website, contacting the call center, or utilising the services of travel agencies.
According to Almohanna, the company launched many new initiatives and products that contributed to providing flynas guests with a distinctive travel experience and options. “flynas will keep providing innovative solutions and technologies that are reflected in the passengers’ experience as the company is moving steadily to achieve its strategic goals, in parallel with the objectives of the Pilgrims Experience Program (PEP) to facilitate access to the Two Holy Mosques and the National Civil Aviation Strategy to enable national air carriers to contribute to connecting KSA with 250 International destinations and to accommodate 330 million passengers and to host 100 million tourists yearly by 2030,” Almohanna stressed.“Thanks to our distinguished relationships and the reliability of our work, we have succeeded in doubling the size of our fleet by more than 100 per cent in less than two years. We also signed an agreement with Airbus to purchase 30 new A320neo aircraft as part of a 120-aircraft order with a value exceeding 32 billion riyals and a plan to increase the order to 250 aircraft,” he said.
The LCC is also determined to pursue its expansion to new markets, with announcements to be made during the first quarter of 2024, as the aviation industry in the Kingdom is experiencing unprecedented development, notably tourism and travel.
