Riyadh Air has opened bookings for flights to three new cities as the startup carrier looks to continue to strengthen its expanding global network.
On June 29, 2026, Riyadh Air added Kuala Lumpa, Malaysia, and Malaga, Spain, and Dhaka, Bangladesh, to its website homepage allowing customers to secure reservations.
According to the Saudi airline, flights to Malaga will begin from July 14, 2026, and then to the Malysia capital from July 30, 2026. Flights to Dhaka start on August 7, 2026, according to the website.
Although not yet confirmed by Riyadh Air, it appears from the airline’s website that the Dhaka service will also operate daily.
The three times weekly service to Malaga will end on September 8, 2026, with the conclusion of the European summer while flights to Kuala Lumpa will operate all year round, three times a week.

Flights to Madrid, Spain, are scheduled to start on July 17, 2026, and to Manchester, UK, on July 23, 2026.
Riyadh Air has already begun operating to London-Heathrow (LHR), Dubai, Cairo and domestic flights to Jeddah.
“With the addition of Malaga and Kuala Lumpur, we continue to further strengthen our network across key markets for business, tourism, and trade, bringing us closer to our goal of connecting Riyadh to more than 100 destinations worldwide by 2030,” Tony Douglas, CEO of Riyadh Air, said.
He added: ‘Through our growing network, Riyadh Air is now able to offer smooth and convenient onward connections for guests travelling to the Middle East, Europe, Southeast Asia and beyond.”
So far, Riyadh Air has received five new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners with the sixth expected very soon.
Riyadh Air began its first full-service flight on June 10, 2026, with its maiden service to London-Heathrow Airport (LHR).
The new carrier initially scheduled flights to London to begin on July 1, 2026, but with deliveries accelerating, Riyadh Air confirmed that the inaugural operation would start three weeks early.
