Riyadh Air expands London Heathrow service

Riyadh Air will increase flights between Riyadh and London Heathrow to nine times weekly from November 2, adding Monday and Wednesday services to its existing daily schedule.

The Saudi national carrier launched its London Heathrow route on June 10, 2026, and now operates eight aircraft to 14 destinations across Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

The additional services will operate as daytime departures from Riyadh, followed by overnight returns from London, providing greater flexibility for business travellers, short breaks and extended weekends.
Riyadh Air CEO Tony Douglas said: “Since launching our London service four months ago, we have continued to build our presence in the UK by launching flights to Manchester and now increasing two additional roundtrip flights to Heathrow. The additional flights help us meet the growing demand on this important route while giving guests more choice and flexibility while strengthening the connection between Riyadh and London.” -TradeArabia News Service
