‘Islamic Affairs' body lays down new rules for Hajj campaign organisers

The General Authority of Islamic Affairs, Endowments and Zakat has launched a new system to select and accredit Hajj campaigns for the 1447H (2026) season, aimed at delivering satisfactory and well-organised services to pilgrims from the UAE. The updated framework outlines a set of standards and conditions that campaigns must meet to be approved. These include service quality, administrative capacity, financial readiness, and results from performance evaluations during the previous Hajj season (1446H / 2025). The authority added that the selection process will prioritise operators who offer diverse service packages that cater to various categories of pilgrims. Campaign organisers were briefed on the updated system during a coordination meeting held by the authority. It explained that the new system is designed to deliver services that meet the expectations of UAE pilgrims, while maintaining a balance between cost and quality. The authority stated that this move is part of its ongoing efforts to enhance Hajj operations and foster a spirit of competitiveness that supports effective organisation, compliance with scheduled procedures, and improved service quality for pilgrims.

Steven Greenway, flyadeal Chief Executive Officer, said: 'In September last year flyadeal secured Number 1 status as the world's best for operational performance. Today we are celebrating again being the world's most punctual airline based on all airlines in Cirium's monthly data. This is an incredible achievement as we've continued to grow capacity, the number of passengers flown and introduced new domestic and international routes. 'With this comes the need for consistency. Every month since the beginning of the year, flyadeal has maintained great consistency being the number one low-cost airline for punctuality in the Middle East that demonstrates our continued focus on safe and reliable operations. 'As we celebrate Saudia topping the global airlines category, in June, our OTP was the adjudged the best among all airlines in the Middle East and Africa in what was one of the busiest months of the year operating scheduled flights and Hajj charters. Congratulations go to flyadeal colleagues and our airport partners across the network for their dedication and commitment to maintain our operations at the highest levels of efficiency.' flyadeal currently operates a fleet of 39 aircraft from bases in Jeddah, Riyadh and Dammam to over 30 year-round and seasonal destinations in the Middle East, North Africa, Europe and South Asia.
