Fly Jinnah has officially started regular flights between Karachi and Riyadh, expanding its international operations to Saudi Arabia’s capital.

The new route provides a direct air connection between Karachi and Riyadh. It is expected to make travel more convenient for passengers travelling between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.

The first flight departed from Karachi on Friday night. The flight carried a total of 146 passengers on its inaugural journey.

A brief inauguration ceremony was held at the Karachi airport before the flight departed. Officials gathered at the airport lounge to mark the launch of the new service.

A cake-cutting ceremony was also held during the event. Representatives from several aviation and security institutions attended the ceremony.

Officials from the Pakistan Airports Authority participated in the inauguration. Representatives from the Civil Aviation Authority and Airport Security Force were also present.

Other relevant officials and stakeholders joined the ceremony. Their presence marked the start of the airline’s latest international route.

Fly Jinnah already operates flights to several international destinations. Its existing Saudi Arabian routes include Jeddah and Dammam.

The launch of the Riyadh service further expands the airline’s network in Saudi Arabia. Riyadh is an important destination for Pakistani travellers and expatriates.

According to Fly Jinnah officials, the new direct route will make travel easier for Pakistanis living in Saudi Arabia. It will also provide another travel option for passengers between the two countries.

The Karachi-Riyadh connection is expected to support stronger air links between the two cities. It may also provide greater convenience for families, workers and other travellers.

Saudi Arabia remains an important destination for Pakistani citizens. Many Pakistanis live and work in different Saudi Arabian cities.

The new flight service gives passengers another direct option for travelling between Karachi and Riyadh. It also reflects the airline’s continued expansion of its international network.

The airline has been gradually increasing its international operations. Its existing services to Saudi Arabia have already connected Pakistani passengers with major destinations.

With the addition of Riyadh, Fly Jinnah now has a broader presence on key Saudi routes. The new service strengthens its position in international passenger operations.
