Podcast: Saudi Arabia's Bold Civil Aviation Ambitions

Listen in as Air Transport World’s Alan Dron and Edmond Rose, consulting director at aviation consultancy ASM, discuss Saudi Arabia's aviation ambitions with David Casey, editor in chief of Routes.

The aviation landscape in Saudi Arabia is changing, helped by the implementation of the government’s Vision 2030, a project aimed at diversifying the economy away from oil dependency. With tourism set to become a major economic driver, the country is targeting 330 million air passengers by the end of the decade, and ambitious investments are underway to help meet the goal.
