Quick answer: Yes, you can pay for Saudia flights monthly when you book through White Sky Travel. UAE residents can split the fare with Tabby (up to 12 months), Tamara (extendable terms) or a credit card plan from selected UAE banks (3, 6, 9 or 12 months). We only need your phone number to send the payment link, and we issue your Saudia ticket once the first payment goes through. Below we also compare the fares, baggage, change fees, pets and lost bags. Message us on WhatsApp for a fare and a monthly plan.

|---|---|---|---|
| Tabby | Split the ticket price into monthly payments | Up to 12 months | Your Tabby registered phone number |
| Tamara | Pay in parts or pay later | Extendable terms | Your Tamara registered phone number |
| Bank credit card plan | Monthly plan on your card | 3, 6, 9 or 12 months | Your phone number; you choose your bank and plan in the link |

Example: what a monthly Saudia fare can look like
If a Saudia return from Dubai to Jeddah for Umrah costs AED 1,500, a 6 month plan comes to about AED 250 per month, plus any plan fee shown in the link. A family of four could spread about AED 6,000 over 12 months at roughly AED 500 per month. Fares change daily, so we always quote the live price first.

Names on your Saudia ticket
Your name on the ticket must match your passport exactly, and for Umrah it must also match your visa. We check every name before we issue.
Coming back to the UAE with only one name in your passport? Under UAE National Advance Information Centre (NAIC) rules, a traveller whose passport shows only one name, with no other names on any page, is not allowed to enter the UAE, unless for example their UAE visa or Emirates ID shows additional names. If this affects you or your family, message us before you book.
Lost or delayed baggage on Saudia
- At the airport: report a missing or damaged bag at the Saudia baggage desk before you leave, and keep your report number.
- Track and claim: Saudia has an online baggage tracking page and a baggage claim form for mishandled, delayed or lost bags.
See the Saudia baggage claim form. We can help you with the follow up on WhatsApp.
