Headquartered in Riyadh since 2007, it has flown over 78 million passengers and continues to provide efficient and budget-friendly service across more than 70 destinations from the primary airport hubs in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam and Al-Madinah. The air carrier teases further growth with plans to expand its fleet size to reach a goal of over 165 destinations worldwide in the coming years.

During Farnborough Airshow in London last July, flynas signed a landmark agreement with Airbus of 160 new aircraft, including 30 wide-body A330neo aircraft. The agreement is the world’s largest purchase order with airbus during 2024 so far.

AVIAREPS UK is committed to support this growth and create a greater scope for flynas fuel-efficient fleet in response to the strong demand from highly competitive and fast-paced UK market.

AVIAREPS UK General Manager Katerina Tomina said: "We are excited and proud about the appointment as General Sales Agent for flynas in the United Kingdom. Our sales team will support flynas to help strengthen the brand awareness of the airline and grow the airline’s sales in the UK market."

Flynas is also integral to Saudi Vision 2030, actively contributing to the nation’s tourism objectives by increasing connectivity to new international markets and positioning Saudi Arabia as a key travel destination. Increasing connectivity to new international markets, particularly the UK is key to airline’s growth and benchmark of 100 million annual tourists to Saudi Arabia by 2030.

The airline has been ranked as the world’s fourth best Low-Cost airline for two consecutive years 2023 -2024 and the best in the Middle East for the seventh time in a row (2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022 and 2023) by Skytrax.
