Riyadh Air to increase Manila-Riyadh flights to daily service in October
Saudi Arabia's second official national flag carrier, Riyadh Air, will increase its Manila-Riyadh service from four flights a week to daily operations starting next month.
Saudi Arabian carrier Riyadh Air plans to increase its daily flights between Manila and Riyadh, starting in October 2026, following its inaugural service on September 9. Riyadh Air Senior Vice President Osamah Alnuaiser stated that this increase is their next milestone for the Manila route. The DOT noted that the new service will use Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners, with the airline aiming to establish itself as a new generation of airline focused on passenger experience.
Riyadh Air's Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners offer four cabin classes, including Business Elite, Business, Premium Economy, and Economy. The airline also emphasizes its Saudi identity and hospitality, incorporating Hafawa, a tradition of generosity, warmth, and attention to detail, into its services. The Manila route is part of Riyadh Air's broader network expansion, with plans to add 30 routes by the end of 2026 and more than 100 destinations worldwide by 2030.
