Riyadh Air Vice President of Cargo Praveen Singh said digital solutions were helping the carrier provide reliable services in key international markets. The agreement would extend Riyadh Air’s network, create new opportunities for trade and strengthen Riyadh’s role as a gateway for the future of global logistics.
The partnership will give freight forwarders and logistics companies access to more reliable and flexible services while enabling both carriers to operate beyond their direct networks, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
The agreement supports the National Transport and Logistics Strategy and Saudi Vision 2030 by strengthening the Kingdom’s international connectivity and developing Riyadh and Jeddah as complementary gateways for global trade.
