SAUDIA Group to Participate in the Future Aviation Forum at Riyadh

The SAUDIA Group will sponsor and participate in Riyadh for Saudi Arabia’s first Future Aviation Forum on 9 – 11 May 2022 as the Strategic Partner and Official Airline.

Hosted by the General Authority of Civil Aviation of Saudi Arabia (GACA), the forum will bring international leaders from the private and public sectors, CEOs, and regulators to shape the evolution of international air travel and put forward new solutions.

SAUDIA Group CEO’s will be participating in different sessions that cover a range of topics from maintenance to cargo digitization to the future of aviation. The group is planning to sign a number of agreements during the forum as well.

The Future Aviation Forum will focus on three core thematic pillars – passenger experience, sustainability, and business recovery post-COVID.

The companies under the SAUDIA Group’s ecosystem share the same vision and goals which leads to a cohesive understanding and synergy. There is an integrated and seamless customer experience, a holistic approach to sustainability in terms of economic growth, gender equality, training, and cultivating a commercial ecosystem in Saudi Arabia, as well as building greater resilience to accelerate business recovery.

His Excellency Eng. Ibrahim Al-Omar, Director General of the Saudi Arabian Airlines Corporation, said, “The SAUDIA group is thrilled to participate in the Future Aviation Forum. As the national carrier and ‘Wings of Vision 2030’, the entire SAUDIA group companies will support efforts to establish major events launched to transform the Kingdom into a leading global aviation hub. We welcome the opportunity to bring together the aviation industry with open arms.”

The SAUDIA Group has been at the forefront of the pandemic, as each company played a role and enabled the fast implementation of a touchless journey according to the COVID-19 rules and restrictions. This demonstrates the strong commitment to innovate and transform through new thinking and increased collaboration which ultimately lead to achieving a 5-star Global Airline ranking by APEX, the Most Improved Airline by Skytrax, and won the Diamond Status in Health Safety awards.

Saudi Arabia’s transport and logistics sector, a significant pillar of the Vision 2030 economic transformation plan, is rapidly developing”.

The Future Aviation Forum will be held under the patronage of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz and hosted by GACA, the General Authority of Civil Aviation of Saudi Arabia.
