The new deal, which was signed on the sidelines of the Dubai Airshow, will increase the number of aircraft ordered from Airbus to 90.
Bandar Almohanna, CEO of flynas, said that the new plans will expand the reach of flynas network to much farther destinations with support of significantly longer flying range compared to the existing A320neo order.
He added that signing the deal comes in line with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030.
