RIYADH: The first direct seasonal flights between Al-Ahsa International Airport and Rize-Artvin Airport in Turkiye were opened Thursday by Prince Saud bin Talal bin Badr, governor of Al-Ahsa, according to the Saudi Press Agency. Several authorities were present for the event, which was organised in collaboration with Turkish Airlines and Al-Ghazal Travel and Tourism Agency.
To improve air connectivity and increase the number of international travel options available to passengers from the governorate and the Eastern Province, especially during the summer, the inauguration is part of the expansion plans for seasonal destinations served by Al-Ahsa International Airport, according to SPA.
