Riyadh, 1 March 2025 โ In a significant gesture of generosity and hospitality, CATRION, a leading provider of inflight catering services, has partnered with flynas, the Middle East’s premier low-cost airline, to offer over 300,000 complimentary Iftar meals to passengers during the holy month of Ramadan.
This special initiative ensures that fasting passengers can break their fast comfortably in the air, enhancing their travel experience.
Dr. Rashid Al-Arfaj, Executive Vice President of In-Flight Catering at CATRION, and Mr. Fahad Al-Mulhem, Vice President of Customer Experience at flynas, formalised the agreement.
For the first time, passengers flying on flynas during Iftar will receive complimentary meal boxes containing a range of options to help break their fast.
Typically, passengers must pre-order and pay for their meals. Still, this unique collaboration ensures that all passengers travelling at Iftar time will be offered a thoughtfully prepared meal at no additional cost.
The meals will include essential ingredients like dates, water, and laban and nutritious and fulfilling options suitable for breaking the fast.
“We are honoured to collaborate with flynas to provide over 300,000 passengers with the chance to enjoy a special Iftar meal during Ramadan,” said Dr Rashid Al-Arfaj.
“This initiative reflects CATRION’s dedication to not only meeting the dietary needs of passengers but also enhancing their overall experience with culturally sensitive offerings during the holiest month for millions of Muslims worldwide.”
The collaboration with CATRION further solidifies flynas’s position as a customer centric airline focused on enhancing the overall travel experience, especially during the Ramadan season.
“We are proud to give our passengers such a thoughtful gesture during Ramadan,โ said Mr. Fahad Al-Mulhem.
“With this initiative, we aim to make our passengers’ journeys more comfortable and meaningful, aligning with our commitment to exceptional service. It’s a great honour to offer complimentary Iftar meals to all passengers, reinforcing our dedication to quality, service excellence, and customer care.”
CATRION has established itself as a leading name in inflight catering and integrated hospitality services, providing fresh, high-quality meals. This partnership with flynas demonstrates the company’s ongoing commitment to meeting passengers’ needs.
