Date:

The flydubai website also listed flights to Jeddah from November 6.

Etihad Airways has resumed its daily Abu Dhabi-Jeddah service from Friday, November 6, while flights to Riyadh and Dammam remain suspended.

In its latest travel advisory, the UAE’s national carrier said all flights between Abu Dhabi and the two Saudi cities would remain cancelled until Thursday, November 19, amid continuing regional disruptions.

Selected services between Abu Dhabi and Jeddah are scheduled to resume from Friday, November 6. These include:

  • EY601: Abu Dhabi to Jeddah
  • EY602: Jeddah to Abu Dhabi
  • EY603: Abu Dhabi to Jeddah
  • EY604: Jeddah to Abu Dhabi

All other flights between Abu Dhabi and Jeddah will continue to operate as scheduled, the airline said.

Etihad cautioned that the situation remains fluid and further changes to its flight schedule may be necessary. Passengers have been advised to check their flight status on the airline’s official website before travelling.

The airline apologised for the disruption and said its teams were working to assist affected passengers with alternative travel arrangements.

Flydubai flights available

Flydubai had previously cancelled all flights to Abha, Dammam and Riyadh through November 5. However, its website now shows services to several Saudi destinations available on later dates.

According to the airline’s website, flights from Dubai to Jeddah are available from November 6, while services to Dammam are listed from November 10. Flights to Abha and Riyadh are available from November 17.

Several UAE-Saudi Arabia flights were cancelled following attacks on Saudi airports attributed to the Iran-backed Houthi rebel group. A missile strike on Riyadh’s international airport on October 10 reportedly killed 14 people and injured more than 300.
