Riyadh: King Abdulaziz International Airport (KAIA) celebrated the launch of its first direct flynas flight to Moscow, operating three weekly flights between Jeddah and Vnukovo International Airport.

According to Saudi Press Agency, this initiative, in partnership with the Saudi Tourism Authority and the Air Connectivity Program, enhances air links between the Kingdom and Russia. It marks KAIA’s third direct Russian destination, following Makhachkala and Mineralnye Vody, which were inaugurated earlier this month by Azimuth Airlines.

This expansion supports Jeddah Airports Company’s goal of broadening travel options and increasing air traffic revenue, leveraging the Kingdom’s strategic location.
