With just five aircraft to its name so far, Saudi Arabai's first budget airline Nas Air could, until recently, fly you between just a handful of destinations, including Jeddah and Riyadh. But that's okay for an airline that started life as recently as February 25 this year.
Nas Air is actually a subsidiary of the Saudi National Air Services and its expansion was recently announced. They're now going to be flying to 20 destinations across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for a fare starting at 49 Saudi Riyals (about $13).
What we like about Nas Air is its overwhelmingly upbeat attitude. We're not sure if the airline is living up to it, but this is what's promised:
We have a fervent zeal to be the best we can be in an advanced 21st century.
Any airline with a fervent zeal these days is more than okay by us.
