Saudi Airlines Add Flights to India Amid IndiGo Suspension Due to Airspace Restrictions
Saudi Arabian carriers, including Flynas, have added flights from Dammam and Riyadh to multiple Indian cities to assist Indian nationals amid ongoing travel disruptions linked to regional security concerns. IndiGo has extended suspension of its flights to Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, and Madinah until November 14, citing airspace restrictions. Indian consulates in Saudi Arabia continue 24/7 support for affected travelers, especially Umrah pilgrims, coordinating with local authorities and airlines to facilitate rebooking, refunds, and essential assistance.
