Saudi Arabian Airlines took to the skies in 1945 with a DC-3 aircraft given to King Abdul Aziz as a gift by United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Later months brought the purchase of additional aircraft, which helped to position the company for rapid growth and expansion.
As the aircraft boards, passengers in first class are treated to overnight amenity kits, 180 degree reclining seats and fresh fruit juices. Once airborne, the in flight meal service is prepared on fine china and served at the passengers request.
Business Class was designed with the thought that business travelers desire a quiet, spacious and comfortable area to work and relax. Wider than normal seats with adjustable head and foot-rests along with overnight amenity kits and a three course meal makes business class feel like first class.
Passengers in guest class can relax with 34 inches of legroom, headrests with padded and adjustable wings and a lumbar support recline. Passengers also receive a three-course meal, including desert with a coffee, tea or espresso accompaniment.
Saudi Arabian Airlines offers an in flight entertainment system at each seat with a 9-inch television monitor. Each personal seat back system features movies, pre-recorded television shows, audio channels and video games. For your reading enjoyment, international newspapers and magazines are also on board.
"Skysales," Saudi Arabian Airlines' inflight shopping service, offers passengers up to 30 percent off retail prices on a wide variety of products appealing to all demographics.
