Stefan Gumuseli, the General Manager of Air France-KLM in India and the Middle East, said, “We are very happy to start flights between Riyadh and Paris. Saudi Arabia is an important market for us. This new flight is a sign of our strong commitment to the country. Riyadh and Paris are important for both business and travel, and we are excited to offer more travel choices between these two cities.”

The flights will be on the Airbus A350-900, which has 324 seats. The Business class will have 34 seats that can turn into full flat beds with easy aisle access. There will also be 24 seats in Premium Economy and 266 seats in Economy class. The Economy class will have enough space to make passengers feel comfortable during the flight.

Air France is known for its excellent service, and passengers can expect the same high-quality experience. With this new flight, all three airlines in the Air France-KLM group (Air France, KLM, and Transavia) will fly to Saudi Arabia. Transavia has been flying to Jeddah from Paris-Orly and Lyon since December 2024, and KLM already offers flights from Amsterdam to Riyadh and Dammam.
