Saudia Adds Kozhikode To Its Network With 8 Weekly Flights In Each Direction

Travellers from India's Kerala to Saudi Arabia will soon have more flight options. Saudia, the national flag carrier of the Gulf country, has added Kozhikode to its scheduled international network.

The coastal city in Kerala will become Saudia's seventh destination in India, alongside Bengaluru, Mumbai, Kochi, Delhi, Hyderabad, and Lucknow. This addition aligns with Saudia's expansion strategy to reach new international destinations, connect the world to the Kingdom, optimize the utilization of its modern fleet, and strengthen its global competitiveness, the airline said in a statement on Thursday.

Operations to Kozhikode will begin on February 1, 2026, with eight weekly flights in each direction between Kozhikode International Airport and King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh.

Bookings are now available via Saudia's website and mobile app. Coordination is currently underway with airport authorities in Kozhikode to finalize all operational arrangements ahead of the launch.

The addition of Kozhikode strengthens Saudia's global network, which includes more than 100 destinations across four continents, serving tourism, business travel, and the Hajj and Umrah seasons. Saudia currently operates over 550 domestic and international flights daily.
