Riyadh airport has reopened.
However, most airlines have not confirmed when their flights will resume.
Riyadh's King Khalid International reopened Terminals 1 and 2 on Sunday 25 October, for domestic flights and international flights by Saudi airlines. The airport announced it in an official statement on Saturday evening, 24 October.
Saudia's early Riyadh–Jeddah flights did not operate on Sunday morning, and most other Riyadh flights remain unconfirmed for now.
So what does this mean if you're travelling?
If you're flying into Riyadh in the coming weeks, your airline will confirm when it resumes. Several international airlines have already set dates in November.
If you're flying into Jeddah or Madinah, most airlines are operating. Some are not, so it is worth looking over the status update.
