Thanks for sharing.
The layover in JED is a killer though. Not to mention the time of arrival in KUL... |

FYI (EN): https://loyaltylobby.com/2019/10/28/...#disqus_thread
FR:L’Arabie Saoudite accorde, depuis le 27 septembre 2019, des visas de tourisme aux ressortissants de 49 pays, dont la France. Selon les autorités saoudiennes, il est possible de solliciter ce type de visa directement à l’arrivée, gr ce aux bornes réservées à cet effet dans les aéroports de Riyad et de Djeddah. Il est toutefois recommandé aux Français souhaitant effectuer un voyage touristique en Arabie Saoudite d’obtenir, avant leur déplacement, un visa électronique via https://visa.visitsaudi.com/. Dans tous les cas, les visiteurs doivent être en mesure, à l’arrivée, de présenter les justificatifs obligatoires, notamment en matière de couverture médicale. Since september 2019, all European countries and the US, Canada are allowed to have Saudi e-visa |

did you mean hotel outside of JED airport? If so, will one with an EU passport need a visa for entry?

By the way all European flights with an A320 aircraft will be in the new international terminal from 3 Nov 2019
All International Flights to the new terminal from 20 DEC 2019 |

All International Flights to the new terminal from 20 DEC 2019 So really happy to hear the move is finally happening. Saying that there's been several announcements of dates of the move in the past which have never come to fruition so I will wait until SV has actually moved terminals before booking any other SV deals. |

The terminal for SV is horrendous though, the north terminal (where I’m sat typing this) is much better but still bad. The first class lounge (immediate left turn after security) is a pleasant place to spend an hour or so. |

Yes, I believe it’s 48 or 49 countries can now apply for a tourist visa, 1 year validity, multi entry, no more than 90 days in the country at a time. Cost is around 440SAR.

I've done some of the Saudi fares before and have been pretty impressed with the onboard offering. What has put me off doing more is the transit at JED. Words really cannot describe how awful it is. Airports like Lagos or Addis are luxury compared to the SV terminal in JED.

Us Brits are excluded from the tourist visa, no doubt. Is it really only 15XPs from Madrid to Jeddah? It feels like it is a lot further.

To be honest, that's not giving a great rate: it's €14.13 per XP. But on long haul, it is obviously much better to travel in Business than Economy, so that is a value in itself.
Hope some other deals from SV appear. |
