flynas recently launched direct services from Dammam to Khartoum, describing it as a strategic move to continue growing the airline’s footprint in wider Middle East region.
The inaugural flight XY420 took off from King Fahd International Airport at 7:20 pm and arrived at Khartoum International Airport at 11:10 pm (local time).
Complementing flynas’ existing schedule of seven weekly flights to Khartoum from Jeddah, five weekly flights from Riyadh and three weekly flights from Madinah, the introduction of four new weekly flights from Dammam expands total number of weekly flynas flights between Saudi Arabia and Sudan to 19 flights.
Paul Byrne, CEO of flynas said: “On account of strong bilateral economic and business ties, our new direct service will answer needs of both Saudi and Sudanese guests traveling in both directions. Sudan is committed in its efforts to attract a growing number of Saudi investors to operate in its agricultural, industrial and mining sectors as the country’s bilateral relations with Saudi Arabia are growing from strength to strength.”
The new route will operate every Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, with flights from Dammam departing at 7:20 pm arriving in Khartoum at 11:10 pm (local time). The return flight departs at 11:59 pm to arrive in Dammam at 3:10 am (local time).
The service will be operated using an Airbus A320 aircraft with the capacity to carry 164 guests in a two-class configuration — 156 in economy and eight in business class.
