With these additions, the company’s total fixed commitments to purchase Airbus aircraft rise to 235 aircraft, indicating that Saudi Arabia has become one of the fastest growing markets in the aviation sector .

This deal follows a series of major aircraft purchases by Saudi Arabia, including Riyadh Airlines' order for 34 wide-body aircraft from Airbus and Boeing, as the Kingdom moves forward with its plans to expand passenger transport and connect regional markets to the global aviation network.
