Saudi: 633 Citizens Repatriated From Indonesia, US
More than 600 Saudi citizens on Tuesday arrived in Jeddah from Jakarta (258) and Washington (220), and 155 arrived in Riyadh from New York on special flights arranged by the Kingdom to ensure the safe return of all its citizens stranded abroad in the wake of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak.
They were received by officials of the ministries of foreign affairs, tourism, health and the General Authority of Civil Aviation at the airports in Jeddah and Riyadh.
Passengers have to undergo 12 preventive checkups in three stages — before boarding the plane, inside the cabin and then finally upon arrival.
