Riyadh Air expands Asia push with new flights to Pakistan, Philippines

Riyadh Air is expanding its Asian network with new services to Islamabad, Lahore and Manila, with ticket sales now open for the three destinations.

The airline will launch flights to Islamabad on August 14, Lahore on August 18 and Manila on September 9, 2026, supporting Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 ambitions and strengthening Riyadh’s position as a global connectivity hub.

The new Pakistan routes are expected to serve strong demand from business, leisure, work and family travellers, including the large Pakistani expatriate community in Saudi Arabia.

The services will also provide onward connections to destinations across the Middle East and Europe.

The daily Manila service is aimed at growing travel demand between Saudi Arabia and the Philippines, driven by business, education, leisure and family travel, while offering expanded options for the Filipino community in the Kingdom.

The routes will be operated by Riyadh Air’s Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners, featuring the airline’s latest cabin interiors and onboard experience. -TradeArabia News Service
