According to a spokesperson for the airline, passengers travelling from Pakistan to Dammam and Riyadh will receive a 40 per cent discount on tickets.

The discounted fares will come into effect immediately.

PIA officials stated that a large number of Pakistani travellers use the Riyadh and Dammam routes, which is why the concession has been introduced specifically for flights operating on these sectors.

The spokesperson added that the scheme aims to provide financial relief to Pakistani passengers travelling to Saudi Arabia, allowing travellers to benefit from significantly lower ticket prices.
