| Mumbai, April 30: Saudi budget airline nasair, which operates four flights a week between Riyadh and Mumbai, said today it will expand operations in the country from June.
"From June 1, nasair will connect Kochi with Riyadh with three flights a week and Kozhikode and Riyadh with four flights a week from July 1," said Suliman A. Al-Hamdan, CEO of National Air Services (NAS Holdings), which owns nasair.
From August 1, three flights a week will connect New Delhi with Riyadh.
"India is an important market for us and we shall soon expand our footprints across major cities in this country," said Al-Hamdan.
The no-frills airline, which launched the Mumbai-Riyadh flights on April 1, last year helped transport 5,000 Indian Haj pilgrims.
nasair currently operates over 400 flights a week connecting 30 destinations in Saudi Arabia, the Middle East and Mediterranean region. (IANS) |
