MH not even launching Riyadh?

Recommended Posts

Besides he 3 weekly services to JED (as compared to SV's 8 weekly to JED / RUH-JED), MH has increase the frequency to Saudi thorugh DMM (via DXB) and RUH.

 

While SV flights is always full to the brim with umra passengers, can MH do the same with the flight to both RUH/DMM while the domestic RUH/DMM-JED/MED is by SV's domestic. Is it legal for umra passengers to clear immigration other than at JED/MED?

 

3 weekly MH to JED as compared to EK's 12 weekly DXB-JED on 380!

Wrong comparison as they serve different markets. MH, as you would know, does not operate DXB-JED.

 

Umrah visas require pax to arrive into JED.

 

MH is not targeting umrah pax for DMM and RUH.

It has a monopoly at JED and is strengthening its position there. So, opening new routes is not its priority, hence the cancelled plans.
