JEDDAH: Saudi Arabia’s national carrier, Saudia, has achieved a new milestone by ranking first among global airlines for on-time arrivals in July, according to Cirium's monthly report.

The airline recorded an on-time performance rate of 87.24 percent across 16,406 flights during the month, according to the international aviation analytics platform.

Punctuality maintained during peak travel season

This accomplishment is particularly significant as it was achieved during the busy summer holiday season, reflecting Saudia’s ability to maintain the highest levels of operational efficiency and reliability despite the challenges of peak travel periods.

The achievement builds on an integrated operational approach that relies on the expertise of national talent, coordination across Saudia Group companies, close collaboration with aviation partners and government agencies at airports, and the use of advanced digital systems and AI-powered solutions to manage operations and support decision-making.
