Recent Traveller Feedback
Travelled with my 8-month-old baby from Jeddah to Medina on flyadeal. I was worried I'd have to pay extra for our stroller, but they let us check the collapsible stroller for free at the gate. The staff were really helpful and we got the stroller back right after we landed. Made travelling with a baby much less stressful.
I was flying from Jeddah to Riyadh on flyadeal with a carry-on that was a bit over the size limit. At the gate, they stopped me and said my bag was too big for the overhead bin. They had to check it into the hold and charged me SAR 275 right there. It was way more expensive than if I had pre-booked a checked bag online. Now I always measure my bag carefully before I leave for the airport.
275 SAR
I flew from Riyadh to Dammam with flyadeal and my checked bag came in at 27kg, 2kg over the 25kg limit. The check-in agent charged me SAR 23 per kg, so SAR 46 total. I wish I had packed a bit lighter — the overweight fees add up quickly. Next time I'll weigh my bag at home before heading to the airport.
46 SAR
