"There was nothing comfortable"
Emiel van Daalen (Netherlands)
✅ Trip Verified | This was my 3rd roundtrip ticket with Saudia in the past 2 yrs, the previous flights were reasonable for the price paid, but these last 2 flights were very bad. I flew MNL - RUH - CDG. On the first flight from MNL I had booked seat 70L. Heard the crew saying: Are we ready for the movie marathon, while handing out the earplugs, or is it gonna be a sleeping marathon? Well, quickly most passengers found out the last would apply, because more then 75% of the screens didn't work. Sleeping for me was also not an option, because the recline also didn't function. This B777 was in a real bad shape. The cabin crew member did give me another seat in the front of this cabin, but with the 3x4x3, try to eat all at the same time, rubbing elbows? There was nothing comfortable about this flight. The flight to CDG, also a B777, but not much better then the flight from MNL. Here also most screens of the entertainment system didn't work and the USB ports also didn't function.

"Comfy seats"
1 reviews M Almadan (Canada)
✅ Trip Verified | Comfy seats and good entertainment system available on this Boeing 777-300. Recline was more than acceptable with a nice mini foot rest that is not available in a lot of other airlines.

"comfortable for a short journey"
1 reviews Pramitha Ranshika (Saudi Arabia)
Comfortable seat for a short journey. Didn't get bogged down by the next passenger. Ample leg room and the flight was comfortable. Even liked the tray table despite this being a small short-haul flight. I would definitely recommend this considering value for money.

"seat configuration is 3x3x3"
2 reviews Muhammad Hafizuddin (Malaysia)
I sat all the way back on the Boeing 777-300ER and the seat that is near a window, just having a little legroom space with a person beside me and so forth. I have just a very little space to move out to move around the cabin, which since the seat configuration is 3x3x3, it's just quite better than the 3x4x3 seat configuration.

"satisfied with it"
1 reviews Ahmed Jamal (Saudi Arabia)
Seat was simply amazing as it was a aisle seat, even thought it at the back of the aircraft I was satisfied with it. The IFE was working perfectly on my screen, but on landing the forward camera was not working. The flight was fun and i enjoyed it. I would fly again hopefully for a front seat in the cabin.

"most comfortable economy seats"
Abdulaziz Abobotain (Saudi Arabia)
Possibly the most comfortable economy seats. Saudia aircraft have leather seats, and their long-haul aircraft have IFE in every seat. The newer aircraft are also equipped with Wi-Fi and GSM services at very good prices. What matters is the ample leg room, which is better than other airlines I've experienced.

"seats were comfortable"
3 reviews Fawwaz Asrar (Saudi Arabia)
Seats were comfortable and have a good leg space. It is a good change I have noticed in this airline since this airline has been upgraded from 3-star ranking to 4-star ranking. Seats inclined enough to take a nap comfortably without irritating the passenger seated behind you. Material used for seat covers was some type of leather and was very soft. Footrest was not present.

"most comfortable Economy class seat"
Harish Thilakan (India)
Los Angeles to Chennai via Riyadh, the most comfortable Economy class seat I have been on. The seats were leather with generous leg room, seat pitch too was quite generous. The recline worked well and slid forwards as well as backwards - great sleep support though a tad more recline would've been great. I never usually manage more than 2-3 hours of constant shut eye on an airplane, but I managed to nod off for 6 hrs straight in this economy seat. Given the 3x3x3 config, the aisles were fairly large too. If I had to crib, it would be the small'ish size of the TV screen, the lack of AC power (USB was available) and how tight the seat pocket flap was!

"nice clean aircraft"
M Qadeer (United States)
New York-Jeddah-Islamabad. Flight was full. Nice clean aircraft food just average. They have an open self service snack bar in the rear of the aircraft. sandwiches juices soda and fruit like banana apples and peaches. At Jeddah we had a 10 hours layover. Had to haggle with the staff at the airport for the dinner vouchers. Only reason I will fly this airline again is its low price.
