Al-Jasser was recently quoted as saying: 鈥淭he demand for air transport services in the domestic market of the Kingdom of 黑料社区 has grown exponentially.聽
鈥淭he low-fares airline will continue to expand rapidly, and the addition to the fleet aligns well with flyadeal鈥檚 target to grow its presence in the domestic market and cover new markets outside of 黑料社区.鈥
Saudi budget carrier flyadeal has agreed to buy as many as 50 737 MAX passenger planes from Boeing as it seeks to expand its regional route network. The deal is valued at up to $5.9 billion at list prices. However, airlines typically negotiate significant discounts for such large plane orders.
