Business class-only airline beOnd is set to launch direct flights from London Heathrow to Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea International Airport (RSI) from 15 December 2026.
The airline, headquartered in Dubai, will operate three weekly services from London, alongside new routes from Paris, Moscow and Zurich.
The Maldivian-owned carrier, which launched in 2023, bills itself as the ‘first pure luxury airline’. BeOnd’s Airbus A321 will operate the routes, with all 68 seats converting into a fully lie-flat bed.
The announcement follows beOnd’s new service between London Heathrow and Malé International Airport in the Maldives, which starts on 16 December 2026.
BeOnd CEO and Chairman Tero Taskila said: “This marks an exciting new chapter in beOnd’s growth and reinforces our long-term vision of connecting the world’s most exceptional leisure destinations.
“The Red Sea is among the world’s most exciting new destinations, shaped by innovation, outstanding hospitality, and a deep respect for its natural surroundings. It is a perfect complement to the beOnd experience, and we’re delighted to offer more travellers from Europe an elevated way to discover this remarkable destination—where the holiday begins the moment they step on board.”
