News from Saudi ????

?? Saudia (Saudis National Airline)?has topped the list of global airlines as it achieved an 88.22 percent on-time arrival rate in June.?

???Diriyah has signed a $2 billion contract with Urbacon Saudi Co. and Al-Bawani Group to develop the Wadi Safar project, including the Royal Diriyah Equestrian and Polo Club, a golf course, and several luxury hotels.

?? Red Sea Global has partnered with the Saudi Climbing and Hiking Federation (SCHF), intended to boost adventure tourism across the Red Sea region.

???? If you like running (and I mean marathon) and heat (and I mean proper heat) then the second AlUla Desert Blaze, which is scheduled for the 23rd and 24th of August, is the right event for you. Race Arabia is organising this annual event again and you can be part of it.

? Ever wanted to live like a king? In the 1940s the ‘Red Palace’ in Riyadh was built for King Saud Abdulaziz, the second ruler of modern Saudi Arabia. Now, the 3.6ha, art-deco mansion is being transformed into an ultra-luxury hotel designed to give guests a taste of the Saudi royal life. It will re-open in 2025 and have 70 rooms with the lifestyle that came with it.


News from the Rest of the Middle East:

???? UAE?

?? The date for the biggest horse racing event in the GCC is set. The upcoming racing season in Dubai will begin on Friday, 8th of November, 2024 and it is confirmed that the Dubai World Cup will take place on Saturday, 5th of April 2025.

???SpaceVIP located in the UAE is pushing the boundaries by offering an incredible experience – a $495,000 dining journey to the edge of space. They have partnered with Danish chef Rasmus Munk (from the award-winning restaurant Alchemist) to bring their clients a six-hour dining experience.

?? It is time to try out some delivery robots: Three robots, developed by Dubai Future Labs, will provide delivery services from restaurants and shops in the plaza area to residents in the Sustainable City in Dubai.

???? Kuwait?

?? Try and avoid the heat if you can: Kuwait could?see temperatures reach up to 53 degrees in some regions during daytime over the weekend, according to the Kuwait Meteorological Centre.

???? Qatar?

?? Qatar Airways is reportedly in discussions to acquire a 25% stake in South Africa's SA Airlink Pty Ltd.

GCC

???? One effect of the decline of the mortgage rates in the UK is the interest of GCC investors into the London real estate market (and naturally other UK cities as well). The growing expectations of a cut in base interest rates in September is anticipated to trigger an influx of investors from the Middle East region.
