Direct flights link Jeddah and Moscow

From 23 December, Saudi low-cost airline Flynas launches direct flights between Jeddah and Moscow. The route will operate from Vnukovo Airport three times a week — on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

Flights will be operated by Airbus A320neo aircraft, with an average travel time of just over seven hours. Tickets for the new route are already on sale.

The Jeddah–Moscow service becomes Flynas’ second direct connection to the Russian capital. Earlier, the airline launched regular flights between Riyadh and Moscow and has previously announced plans to further expand its presence in the Russian market.

The new route is expected to support growing travel between Russia and Saudi Arabia, especially following a recent visa-free agreement set to take effect on 1 February, making short-term travel easier for visitors from the Kingdom.
