The inaugural Saudi International Airshow is set to take place at Al-Thummamah Airport in Riyadh on March 12-14.
The show will host a mix of business, general, commercial aviation and aerospace exhibitors on a 100,000 sqm static area, which will accommodate more than 100 aircraft ranging in size from single engine and executive jets to wide body aircraft. The show will offer chalets located next to the runway to enable manufacturers to present their entire range of aircraft and to facilitate demonstration flights.
Three exhibition halls with more than 200 booths will also feature, with national and international exhibitors showcasing their services and products. Naturally, Aviation Job Search will be one of those exhibitors at stand 4180.
The national flag carrier of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabian Airlines (SAUDIA) is the main sponsor of the event, and will showcase two of its new aircraft during the three day event.
An Airbus A320 aircraft – one of the new retrofits currently flying on European routes, and the Formula E branded Boeing 777-300 will also be on static display for guests of the air show to tour and experience.
SAUDIA will also have a dedicated booth and chalet, welcoming VIPs, global aviation guests and media representatives.
The event has been organised by the Saudi Aviation Club (SAC,) who said, “The Saudi Airshow is one of the most important new destinations in the world of civil aviation, as Saudi Arabia is one of the leading countries in the region in the aviation industry, and has the largest market for aircraft parts in the Middle East.”
