Saudia Business Class to India, Thailand, Philippines and More for €656 from Tunis (Oneways at €422)

There are certainly divided opinions about SkyTeam member Saudia, but there shouldn’t be any question about how excellent their prices have been lately. After there had been formidable offers from the airline departing from Athens for a long time, now Tunis has become an attractive starting point.

With departure from there, you can get tickets for business class flights to Bangkok, Manila and Jakarta for as little as €771. Flights to India are even cheaper The prices for one-way flights are also interesting.

While these are truly mouth watering prices, this offer comes with a few inconveniences:

• Flights between Tunis and Jeddah are operated by Airbus A330 aircraft with angled seats in business class. That’s roughly nine hours less in a lie-flat-seat.
• The layovers in Jeddah are quite lengthy and can take up to ten hours.
• Saudia is a dry airline, not serving alcoholic beverages in their planes or lounges.

Possible destinations are:

• Bangalore at €656 (or €422 oneway)¹
• Mumbai at €670 (or €422 oneway)¹
• Guangzhou at €693 (or €478 oneway)
• Nairobi, Kenya at €770 (or €483 oneway)
• Bangkok at €771 (or €517 oneway)
• Jakarta at €814 (or €521 oneway)
• Kuala Lumpur at €824 (or €524 oneway)
• Singapore at €935 (or €637 oneway)
• Beijing at €1,100 (or €478 oneway)
• Manila at €1,119 (or €664 oneway)
