In 2023, The Red Sea destination welcomed its first guests, with three
hotels now open. The Red Sea International Airport (RSI) has been receiving
domestic flights since September 2023, and international flights began in April
2024, including a new twice-weekly route between The Red Sea and Dubai.
This strategic initiative aims to drive the adoption of electric vehicles,
reduce carbon emissions, and promote a sustainable future for Saudi Arabia.

exceed the expectations of eco-conscious travelers.
