Flights and the difference between airlines

When to book
Flights fill up at weekends, in the holidays, in Ramadan and in summer, so book early at these times. If you're visiting Makkah, you can fly to Jeddah and take the Haramain train.
Before you travel
A Saudi national ID (or an Iqama for residents) is enough for domestic flights; make sure you arrive before check-in closes.
