Singapore Airlines Adds Riyadh as Its Second Saudi Destination With New Nonstop Flights

Singapore Airlines has announced the launch of new nonstop flights to Riyadh, marking the Saudi capital as the airline’s second destination in Saudi Arabia and further strengthening its presence in the Middle East.

The addition of Riyadh expands Singapore Airlines’ regional network and enhances connectivity between Southeast Asia and the Middle East, catering to growing demand for business, leisure, and transit travel. Saudi Arabia continues to emerge as a key aviation and tourism market as the kingdom advances its Vision 2030 economic diversification strategy.

With the new service, Singapore Airlines aims to provide passengers with improved travel options and seamless connections through its global network. The route is expected to support increased trade, tourism, and cultural exchange between Singapore, Saudi Arabia, and beyond.

Industry analysts note that airlines are steadily increasing capacity to the Middle East in response to rising passenger demand and the region’s expanding role as a global aviation hub. Riyadh’s inclusion reflects Singapore Airlines’ long‑term strategy of serving high‑growth markets with strong premium and connecting traffic potential.

The new nonstop flights reinforce Singapore Airlines’ commitment to network expansion while offering passengers enhanced connectivity and service quality on long‑haul routes.
