Has anyone used Saudi Arabia Airlines to go to Dubai? I didn’t know Emirates was the way to go when going to DXB 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

Yeah I have - was a decent experience and a super cheap ticket (~€130 one way from Amsterdam to Dubai via Jeddah)

What questions do you have?

Seats are good economy seats and I was able to select for free on their website.

Food was okay, no booze though

Yes, I’ve not had a bad saudia flight before if you can live with the no alcohol. Have flown them quite a bit in business and coach

I find the upgrade to business worth it if you want to sleep on a lay flat. Often times though when flying in coach, the flight wasn’t full so I got to lie down anyway. There is a bidding feature on saudia. You could always put in the bare minimum and save a few thousand on business that way if you win

I haven't. I only use Emirates. But my cousin once used Saudi Arabia Airlines and it did not go well. Lol

Bain & Company Is it truly easier to get in a smaller MBB office?

Have heard a lot for different opinions on these. The logic is that it’s easier because there is a lot of supply in cities like NY, Chicago and SF, but the counter argument is that the offices with less supply are also way smaller and have a lot less demand.
