SADIA and SAR sign contract for enhanced joint services

SADIA and Saudi Arabia Railways (SAR) have inked a contract to enhance the standard of their joint services and offer more initiatives that enhance the traveling experience. In a groundbreaking development, a significant agreement has been inked between SAUDIA, the national airline of Saudi Arabia, and the Haramain High-Speed Railway (HHR) and Al Mashaeer. The agreement, which was signed by Mr. Amer AlKhushail, the esteemed Chief Hajj and Umrah Officer of SAUDIA, and Engr. Rayan Al-Harbi, the Executive Vice President of HHR and Al Mashaeer, promises exclusive benefits for SAUDIA guests embarking on journeys to and from the holy cities of Makkah and Al Madinah via the high-speed railway. Under this arrangement, travelers can expect special prices that will undoubtedly enhance their pilgrimage experience.

In an exciting development set to take place later this year, the SAUDIA and HHR booking systems are slated to be seamlessly integrated. This integration will bring about a significant enhancement to the booking process, as it will now include Makkah as one of the stations available for selection. This eagerly anticipated update is expected to streamline the travel experience for passengers, providing them with greater convenience and options when making their reservations. Saudai, the renowned airline, has introduced a remarkable new feature for its esteemed customers. Now, passengers have the convenience of obtaining boarding passes for both their flight and train journeys simultaneously. This groundbreaking service can be availed of through various platforms, such as the airline's official website, a user-friendly digital application, or conveniently located sales offices. With this seamless integration, SAUDIA aims to enhance the travel experience and provide the utmost convenience to its valued patrons.


In a recent statement, Mr. AlKhushail, a representative of SAUDIA, expressed his enthusiasm for the newly formed agreement. He emphasized that this partnership is a testament to SAUDIA's dedication to enhancing the travel experience for its valued guests. By implementing innovative digital solutions that cater to the needs of both SAUDIA and HHR's guests, this collaboration is set to revolutionize the way people travel. In a bid to streamline travel procedures and enhance the ease of trips between Makkah and Madinah, a series of solutions have been introduced. These innovative measures aim to eliminate the time-consuming steps involved in finalizing travel arrangements, providing a seamless experience for travelers. The government's dedication to ensuring a seamless journey for Hajj and Umrah pilgrims is evident in their commitment to providing top-notch services.

In a recent statement, he emphasized the significance of a brand-new service that SAUDIA has launched. This service, he explained, is an addition to the already extensive range of integrated services offered by the airline. Its primary aim is to enhance the overall experience for Hajj and Umrah pilgrims by providing top-notch air transport and logistical services. Notable features of this service include self-check-in facilities, on-board entertainment packages, and various other amenities.

In a recent statement, Engr. Rayan Al-Harbi expressed his belief that the partnership between SAR and SAUDIA will have a significant impact on enhancing the experience of pilgrims. Al-Harbi emphasized that the integration of travel services is just one of the many initiatives aimed at improving and diversifying the booking options available through HHR.
