After being denied the opportunity to travel abroad due to COVID-19, Saudi travellers opted to explore their own backyard and inevitably discovered wonders and treasures they never knew existed. Saudi travellers thus became ambassadors to one another and this, in turn, served as the catalyst for the advent of domestic flights and tourism in Saudi Arabia.
What started off as a pandemic-imposed crisis in the form of lockdowns and travel curbs has now turned into nothing short of an awakening of Saudi citizens and residents to the wonders of their country.
