Previously known as Saudia Arabian Airlines, Saudia is the largest airline in the country. Reaching more than 100 destinations and transporting over 30 million passengers in 2023 alone, Saudia Airlines is a busy carrier. 

Even with the best intentions, this high amount of traffic can result in Saudia flight disruptions and other unsatisfactory experiences that require an official complaint. We’ll explore everything related to Saudia complaints here and how we can help keep things simple.

Common Saudia Complaints

Generally speaking, the most common Saudia complaints relate to flight interruptions and luggage issues. In certain cases, on flights leaving from UK or EU airports, passengers can claim compensation for these complaints from £220 (€250) to £520 (€600).

Compensation applies when your flight is significantly delayed, or your flight is cancelled without an appropriate notice period. Additionally, instances of denied boarding can trigger the same amount of compensation if you get bumped from your flight.

Mishandled luggage is another common Saudia complaint, and being persistent can get passengers up to £1,000 in the UK and €1,300 in the EU.

Lastly, if you’ve been let down by the airline anywhere in the travel process, it can be worthwhile to submit Saudia complaints. You may get vouchers or discounts for doing this.

Your Rights as a Saudia Passenger

As we mentioned, to qualify for official compensation, your Saudia flight has to depart from an airport in either the UK or EU. If that’s the case, then two regulations apply: UK 261 and EU 261. 

Since Saudia isn’t based in either of these locations, the airport restriction applies. These regulations are what set the range of compensation for flights delayed by at least 3 hours and cancellations made without a minimum of 14 days' notice. 

To further clarify things, here are the scenarios when these two regulations apply to Saudia flights:

Also, here is a snapshot of the compensation limits for Saudia flight delays of 3 hours or more. It depends on flight distance:

Saudia Complaints: What You Should Know

To assist you in navigating the Saudia complaints procedure, here are some tips:

• File complaints right away. Although for things like flight interruptions, you generally have up to 3 years to complain, being proactive is better. Submit your Saudia after travel complaints as soon as you get home to avoid losing precious documents or specific details.
• Prepare to provide documentation. The airline will require various items to validate your complaint, so keep everything related to the incident. This can be anything from photos of damaged luggage to boarding passes to Saudia correspondence you’ve already received.
• Give them your details. Make sure Saudia can contact you easily by providing an email and a direct phone number. 
• State your desired outcome. Don’t be afraid to tell Saudia exactly what is required to resolve the complaint to your satisfaction. Feel free to reference UK/EU 261 if they apply.
