Saudia, the national flag carrier of Saudi Arabia, has achieved a new global milestone in operational excellence.
The airline ranked first among airlines worldwide for
on-time performance in both departure and arrival rates in May 2026, according
to the latest report by Cirium, the leading global aviation analytics provider.
The airline recorded an on-time departure rate of 92.30% and
an on-time arrival rate of 90.12%, operating 13,669 flights across its network
of over 100 destinations across four continents.
The achievement comes during one of Saudia’s most demanding
operational periods, as the airline continued to manage scheduled operations
alongside the arrival phase of the 2026 Hajj season, the transportation of
pilgrims from around the world, and the Eid Al-Adha holiday period.-TradeArabia News Service
