Is it safe to travel to Saudi Arabia? Latest advice after airport attacks

Saudi Arabia, once a favoured travel destination, now faces safety concerns after recent missile attacks on its airports. The Saudi government advises against non-essential travel to certain provinces, including Riyadh, Aseer, Najran, Jizan, and Taif. The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and other foreign ministries have issued similar advisories, citing heightened threats to airports, military bases, ports, and energy infrastructure.

Flights have been cancelled, and travellers are warned of potential further disruptions. Those already in Saudi Arabia should heed local authorities' instructions, avoid military facilities, and monitor travel advisories. The situation remains fluid, and travellers are advised to check with airlines and follow official guidance before making travel plans.
