Wizz Air from Saudi

September 2022 will see Wizz Air launching new routes from Dammam, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Last month Wizz Air signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Ministry of Investment for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia supported by the Saudi National Air Connectivity Programme (a Ministry of Tourism initiative) to support the development of the Saudi Tourism Sector.

Chosen for the inaugural destinations are Abu Dhabi, Rome and Vienna.

The new destinations are said by the airline to be the first step towards a growing presence in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) providing for the first time, point-to-point travel for tourists and residents in the Kingdom, Europe and the UAE, strengthening global connectivity.

Dammam, on the Saudi mainland sits on the Arabian Gulf, offers visitors green parks, airy waterfronts, and sandy beaches alongside a bustling arts, sports, and entertainment scene. The capital of the Eastern Province, Dammam is a popular location with adventurous travellers, who can enjoy fishing, diving and swimming.  It is connected to the island of Bahrain by the remarkable King Faisal Causeway, 15 miles long over the ocean.
