Dutch airline KLM has launched a new route between Amsterdam and Riyadh, marking the carrier’s first service to King Khalid International Airport (KKIA).
Janet Alberda, Dutch ambassador to Saudi Arabia, said: “The launch of this new route will open new avenues to elevate tourism between Saudi Arabia, Netherlands and Europe, benefit passengers traveling along this route, as well as offer companies and mainstay industries in the Netherlands an opportunity to witness and invest in the ongoing transformation of Saudi Arabia.”
Abdulaziz Al-Asaker, General Manager Aeronautical Business Development at Riyadh Airports, said: “We appreciate and value our partnership with KLM, which is a direct result of the efforts of the team here at KKIA and the support of the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Saudi Arabia.
“This new route will serve as a gateway for people and businesses in Saudi Arabia to the Kingdom of the Netherlands and whole of Europe, and vice versa, through KLMs network that extends to North America.”
KLM will operate two flights per week.
