Achieved under the supervision of Governor of the Northern Borders Region Prince Faisal bin Khalid bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz, the event was attended by senior officials from Cluster 2 Airports Company, representatives from Nile Air, and several government agencies operating at the airport, the Saudi Press Agency said.

CEO of Cluster 2 Airports Company Eng. Ali Masrahi stated that the launch is a significant achievement that reflects commitment to achieving one of the targets of the transportation and logistics strategy, as well as the National Aviation Strategy derived from Saudi Vision 2030.

It is aimed at developing the infrastructure of Saudi airports to provide the best services to travelers, Masrahi said. He noted that the flight underscores their ongoing efforts to enhance the status of Saudi airports as key hubs for air transportation in the region.

Eng. Masrahi extended appreciation to the Governor of the Northern Borders Region, for his continuous support and oversight and for his ongoing efforts to attract additional international flights to Arar International Airport.

He also acknowledged the governor’s role in enhancing the passenger experience across all airports in the Northern Borders Region.

This flight is expected to facilitate passenger movement between the Kingdom and Egypt and strengthen the close trade and cultural exchange between the two brotherly countries.

Cluster 2 Airports Company manages 22 domestic and international airports within the Kingdom and continues to work on expanding the international flight network from the various airports it operates.
