Riyadh Air commemorated its first anniversary on March 12, 2023 with a series of strategic partnerships and agreements

Riyadh Air, the newest national airline of Saudi Arabia, on March 12, 2023, celebrated its one anniversary by signing a number of important agreements and collaborations that will help to strengthen its business. 

As it prepares to launch its first commercial flights by 2025 and link Riyadh to more than 100 cities globally by 2030, Riyadh Air's first year has seen a great deal of development.

With a focus on sustainability, unmatched hospitality, and state-of-the-art comfort, Riyadh Air seeks to transform the travel experience while advancing Saudi Arabia's economic diversification and the National Strategy for Transport and Logistics. The launch of the airline is predicted to provide a non-oil GDP of about $20 billion and a large number of job possibilities.

Among its notable accomplishments are the acquisition of Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners and an agreement to buy 90 GEnx engines for its fleet. In order to formally identify Riyadh Air's participation in the international aviation industry, the airline symbol RX has also been allocated. 

One of its major projects was the partnership that Riyadh Air formed with Saudi Airlines at the Dubai Air Show, which was a first for the country's airlines. 

Additionally, Riyadh Air and Lucid, the maker of premium electric vehicles, inked a deal that centred on marketing, sales, and operational benefits for passengers. Industry heavyweights including Microsoft, Oracle, Accenture, Adobe, Swiss-AS, Lufthansa Systems, and IBM Consulting are among the companies with whom partnerships are formed.
