Airline Flights Suspended to Saudi Arabia After Riyadh Attack

Saudi Arabian Airlines (Saudia) continues to run its scheduled services from Dammam, Jeddah and Medina to India. Meanwhile, Flynas maintains the Dammam‑Lucknow route, and Flydeal announced limited Dammam‑Mumbai flights for October 17‑18. Indian travelers who need to leave the kingdom immediately are advised to consider routes through Bahrain, Kuwait or Qatar, provided they hold the necessary visas. The embassy stresses that pilgrims planning Umrah should anticipate possible delays and cancellations at Saudi airports, which could extend the time spent on the ground.
