Red Sea Global (RSG) announced the launch of Fly Red Sea, which successfully operated its first seaplane flight.
Designed to ferry guests to the exquisite island resorts within The Red Sea, including the St. Regis Red Sea Resort and Nujuma, A Ritz Carlton Reserve, Fly Red Sea is the first seaplane company in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Fly Red Sea operates a fleet of four Cessna Caravan 208 seaplanes, each equipped with luxury interiors.
The company plans to expand its fleet to nine seaplanes by 2028 and potentially more than 20 by 2030.
Scenic tours by Fly Red Sea
These seaplanes can comfortably accommodate guests, offering transfers to water-based resorts and scenic tours across the destination.
The Red Sea International Airport, where Fly Red Sea is based, features a dedicated seaplane runway that will eventually have its own terminal.
The Red Sea destination is set to welcome its first guests this year, with the airport already operational and the first two hotels accepting bookings.
Upon full completion in 2030, the destination will offer 50 resorts, 8,000 hotel rooms, and over 1,000 residential properties on 22 islands and six inland sites, along with luxury marinas, golf courses, entertainment, dining, and leisure facilities.
