History

Nas Air

Saudi Arabian Airlines was the only airline in the country when budget carriers Nas Air and Sama Airlines got their licenses from the government. Nas Air was founded in 2007. Operations started on 25 February that year. In late 2007, Nas Air firmed up an order for 20 aircraft of the Airbus A320 family.

Flynas

The company changed its name from Nas Air to Flynas in November 2013. In January 2017, Flynas signed an agreement to order 80 Airbus A320neo family with deliveries scheduled from 2018 to 2026. In July 2017, the Flynas application on smart devices, iPhone and Android, achieved one million downloads of the application by users. In November 2018, Flynas took delivery of the first Airbus A320neo family aircraft. In June 2023, Flynas ordered 30 Airbus A320neo, taking the airline's total order with Airbus to 120 A320neo aircraft, including 10 A321XLR.
