Red Sea Global (RSG) has announced the signing of a new Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Riyadh Air that will see both companies support one another on both brand and marketing campaigns to entice tourism trade toward The Red Sea.
The MoU was signed at a ceremony at Red Sea International Airport (RSI), which was attended by John Pagano, Group CEO of Red Sea Global, and Tony Douglas, CEO of Riyadh Air.

The agreement also creates provisions for future cooperation, including the potential for improved connectivity to RSG destinations.
As part of the collaboration, Riyadh Air guests will receive exclusive offers and packages at The Red Sea resorts.
John Pagano, Group CEO of Red Sea Global, said:This collaboration with Riyadh Air is first and foremost about storytelling, combining our brands to amplify Saudi Arabia’s emergence as a renowned destination on the world stage. By sharing compelling content and campaigns, we’re not only increasing visibility but creating deeper emotional connections with global audiences.
This is just the beginning. Today we welcomed Riyadh Air’s aircraft named Jamila. In the future we look forward to receiving a regular schedule of Riyadh Air flights to our destinations.
Set to begin services in 2025; Riyadh Air is set to provide travel connecting Riyadh with more than 100 international destinations by 2030.
Tony Douglas, CEO of Riyadh Air, said:We’re thrilled to be putting ink to our partnership with Red Sea Global, where the two Saudi brands are creating impact in the travel sector. We’re elevating awareness of both Riyadh Air and The Red Sea and over time, this foundation opens the door for deeper collaboration, including integrated travel experiences that bring the promise of regenerative tourism closer to global travellers.
