Saudia Cargo and Riyadh Cargo have signed an interline agreement to expand cargo connectivity through Saudi Arabia, giving shippers broader access to international markets across both networks. The arrangement links Saudia Cargo, the Kingdom’s national air freight carrier, with Riyadh Cargo, the freight arm of Riyadh Air, and is intended to improve routing flexibility and strengthen cargo flows via the country’s emerging logistics hub.
The deal creates a combined routing option between two Saudi carriers, allowing cargo to move more seamlessly across their respective networks rather than relying only on direct services. Industry coverage places the move within Riyadh Air’s cargo build-out and Saudia Cargo’s wider network-expansion strategy, with both carriers seeking to support trade links and raise Saudi Arabia’s role as a transit point for freight.
No commercial terms, capacity commitments or implementation timetable were disclosed. The agreement adds another cargo partnership to Riyadh Air’s international development plans as the airline builds its freight capability alongside its passenger network.
