Cyclically Saudia Airlines, the national airline of Saudi Arabia, SkyTeam member, launches bids toward the Asian market.
The occasion could be a good excuse for a stop over in Riyad, the capital city, and also an opportunity to be able to browse the brand new international airport, the construction and opening of which dates back to last year.
Three destinations in Asia are on offer at this time: Kuala Lumpur, Manila and Jakarta with prices starting at €783 to fly business class from Athens to Riyadh and then on to Asia aboard Dreamliners, the most modern model in the fleet. To find the right fits you I recommend using Google Flight.
The interesting thing is that in business class, Even on the "small" planes like A320 with which the route from Athens to Saudi Arabia is operated ,is offered a seat that converts to a bed, IFE and premium treatment.
The only flaw, if you want to call it that, is that there is a ban on alcohol on board, as there is throughout Saudi Arabia.
Your ticket is issued in Class I, so you earn points in the major frequent flyer programs of all SkyTeam airlines.
With this route, for example, it is possible to gain minimum 14,586 Millemile points.
The cheapest booking is through some OTAs, if you want to be safe at 100% you can book directly on the company's website.
