The BHX to Jeddah route

Saudia has operated a non-stop Birmingham to Jeddah (BHX to JED) service, taking roughly six hours fifteen minutes. Frequency changes by season, so confirm the live schedule for your dates rather than relying on a previous year’s timetable.

Madinah itineraries from Birmingham currently involve a connection, typically via Istanbul or a Gulf hub - there is no non-stop BHX to Madinah service at present.

Getting to Birmingham Airport

Birmingham International railway station connects to the terminal by the Air-Rail Link, a short automated shuttle, and is a short train journey from Birmingham New Street. If driving, pre-book parking or arrange a drop-off in good time for a long-haul check-in.

Before you book

Check passport validity, current Saudi Arabia visa requirements and any vaccination guidance (meningococcal ACWY is commonly required for Umrah travellers) well ahead of a Ramadan or school-holiday departure, when both flights and hotels sell out earliest.

Ask for a full written quote covering flights, hotel, visa support and transfers rather than comparing headline flight prices alone.
