flynas opens Rome-Riyadh route

flynas expands its European network and announces the new seasonal flight between Riyadh and Rome, strengthening travel opportunities between Saudi Arabia and Italy. Starting June 25, 2026, the Saudi low-cost airline will operate three weekly flights between Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport (RUH) and Rome's Leonardo da Vinci Airport Fiumicino (FCO). Connections will be available every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, offering passengers a new direct option during the peak summer demand period.

The arrival of Rome in the flynas network represents an important novelty for Saudi Travellers heading to Italy, in particular to one of the most visited cultural and tourist destinations in the world: Rome. At the same time, the route offers passengers departing from Rome a direct connection with Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia and a city undergoing strong transformation, increasingly relevant for tourism, business and international events.

The new flight is part of the enhancement of flynas' summer offer in Europe, joining other destinations already present in the company's network, including Milan, Geneva, Prague, Vienna and Salzburg. The aim is to expand the possibilities of direct travel during the tourist season, with a more articulated offer to some of the main European cities.

flynas, the first airline listed on the Saudi Tadawul Stock Exchange, now operates a network of 156 routes to over 80 destinations in 38 countries. The airline operates more than 2,000 weekly flights on average and has carried 110 million passengers since 2007.
