WE NEED DIRECT FLIGHT from MANGALORE - RIYADH

But very sad to say that there is no direct flight from RIyadh to Mangalore. We need immediately from Riyadh to Mangalore once in a week.

Dear Asif Bhai,

What happened to our Mangalore - Riyadh direct flight. We are waiting.
Hope you will do something.
