Singapore Revives Nonstop Riyadh Flights, Redefining Ultra-Long-Haul Travel

Singapore is reigniting its aviation link with Saudi Arabia because Singapore Airlines will restart non-stop flights between Singapore Changi Airport and Riyadh’s King Khalid International Airport from June 2, 2026, bringing back a route that disappeared in 2014 and returning with a stronger, more direct strategy. The four-times-weekly service, operated by an Airbus A350-900 Medium-Haul, cuts out previous stopover complexity and delivers a faster, smoother journey that fits today’s demand for efficient long-haul travel. This relaunch also deepens the Singapore Airlines Group footprint in the kingdom, with Riyadh becoming its second Saudi destination alongside Jeddah, giving business travelers, tourists, and connecting passengers a more reliable corridor between Southeast Asia and the Gulf as trade links, tourism momentum, and regional connectivity continue to intensify into 2026. Singapore Airlines is set to reconnect Southeast Asia with the Saudi capital as it prepares to resume non-stop flights between Singapore Changi Airport and Riyadh’s King Khalid International Airport from June 2, 2026. The move brings back a long-haul route that has been absent from the airline’s network for more than a decade.
