The Middle East is best known for its royal amenities and luxury travel experiences. Saudi Arabia’s national airline, Saudia, is preparing to introduce a new Premium Economy cabin on its long-haul flights, giving passengers another option between Standard Economy and Business Class. The new seats will first appear on its Boeing 787 aircraft, which is expected to arrive in 2027.
This week, Saudia revealed its new Premium Economy seats at the World Travel Market event in London. The new cabin is designed to offer more comfort and privacy for passengers on longer journeys.
Saudia promises more comfort to its passengers
Under its “New Saudia Experience” program, the airline launched Premium Economy. The launch focuses on upgrading its aircraft and improving the passenger experience.
