Singapore - Saudi Arabia and Singapore have reached an agreement to allow any number of flights between Singapore and the eastern Gulf city of Damman, the Transport Ministry said Friday. The increase was reached after two days of consultations between the ministry and Saudi Arabia's General Authority of Civil Aviation.
Under the agreement, carriers may also operate up to 14 flights per week between Singapore and other points in Saudi Arabia, including Jeddah and Riyadh.
"Airlines of both countries have also been granted permission to operate services between the other country and selected cities in third countries," a ministry statement said.
Previously carriers were only allowed to operate three weekly flights between Saudi Arabia and Singapore.
