Airlines are facing mounting competition and are therefore looking to provide increased flexibility in terms of ticket scheduling, booking, cancellations and payments. For the upcoming travel period, airlines are expecting a strong increase in the number of passengers and travel plans and many airlines have geared up for this with the addition of extra flights for preferred Saudi routes as well as hiring additional supplementary ground staff to handle the expected increase in demand.
Low cost carriers are estimated to continue driving growth as more passengers are looking for affordable flight options, particularly for domestic travel. Hence, low cost carriers are most likely to continue offering and adding routes that are in high demand, with the focus being on offering the lowest and most competitive prices.

Airlines
Airlines covers sales made to country residents (outbound and domestic tourists) and excludes sales to incoming tourists. Please note that airlines sales made to country residents when they are travelling abroad or through foreign websites or apps are also included and will be considered under the country of residence. The total amount paid for a flight after taxes and other charges is included. The return flight leg is included as well as the total amount paid for a flight ticket. Value sales exclude all forms of transit. Euromonitor International considers airline capacity and passengers carried in terms of enplanement based on scheduled flights. A passenger whose flight stops mid-route to pick up more passengers but continues with the same aircraft/flight number would be counted as one enplanement. A passenger who switches flights to another airline or aircraft with a new flight number mid-journey would be considered as two enplanements. Enplanements are not the same as number of seats sold or seat bookings, as the latter both include all bookings and do not exclude no-shows and cancellations. Direct transit passengers are excluded, eg those who continue on the same flight. Other transit passengers are included where passengers change plane with a new flight number. Air passengers carried relate directly to air value sales, where domestic and outbound travellers are only included. As such value and volume data in both sizes and shares is aligned and exclude the inbound component.
