SAFE TRAVEL BY AIRLINES

Saudi Arabian Airlines

Saudi Arabian Airlines places the safety of its guests and crew as its highest priority and applies world class standards and procedures to ensure flights are safe and comfortable.

With the emergence of the new coronavirus (COVID-19), the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has initiated several precautionary steps and implemented binding measures to prevent the virus from spreading.

Saudi Arabian Airlines – the national carrier of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia – has implemented several procedures in accordance with the General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) to provide safe travel environment on all its domestic and international flights.

Since January 26, 2020, all aircraft have been undergoing full inspection when arriving from several international destinations. And upon their arrival, sterilization, careful disinfection and thorough deep cleaning has been conducted and is still ongoing. Screen of all frontline staff and cabin crew members for pre-flight, pre-arrival, during and post-arrival is also taking place as an added precaution.

GUIDELINE FOR UMRAH

In Masjid

For pilgrims wanting access to the Haram, there is an app called Eatmarna. Created by the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah (the government’s ministry dedicated to pilgrim matters) the Eatmarna app allows pilgrims to book a specific time slot for access to the Grand Mosque, meaning numbers are capped. The app is also linked to the Tawakkalna app which means access is granted based on COVID-19 status. Click here to download the App.

A limited number of worshippers were allowed in at a time and there was clear demarcation to ensure physical distancing. Police and mosque orderlies monitored and directed the pilgrims. Harsh penalties were imposed on anyone not wearing a mask or trying to enter the Haram without a valid permit.
