How much is a flight from Sarajevo to Jeddah?

"How much is the Sarajevo to Jeddah flight?" is the question we get most, and the honest answer is that it moves every day. Low fares open months ahead and disappear as seats sell; peak seasons, school holidays and the most convenient departure times cost more; a fare with a checked bag and a flexible ticket cost more than a hand-luggage-only seat. Haqqi Tours arranges the current cost for your dates in a few minutes of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.

The figure we send is the total: ticket, taxes and the baggage included in that fare. If a departure two hours earlier is cheaper, or a different airline includes a suitcase for the same money, we say so, because the cheapest Sarajevo to Jeddah flight is often not the one at the top of a search.

Cheapest flight from Sarajevo to Jeddah: how to pay less

The cheapest flight from Sarajevo to Jeddah is normally booked early, flown mid-week and chosen with the baggage you actually need. These are the rules our team applies on every booking:

• Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more
• Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
• Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are generally cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which frequently carry the lowest fares
• Tell us if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
• Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag

Send us the form with your dates and we tell you which departure is the cheapest flight from Sarajevo to Jeddah that day and what a slightly different day would cost.

Departure: Sarajevo International Airport (SJJ)

Flights from Sarajevo to Jeddah leave from Sarajevo International Airport (SJJ), serving Sarajevo - sarajevo is the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, set in a narrow valley of the Dinaric Alps, with Sarajevo International Airport (SJJ) about 12 km south-west of the old Ottoman bazaar of Baščaršija, and the mountains of the 1984 Winter Olympics rising directly above the city. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: A trolleybus and bus run from near the airport to the centre with a walk at both ends; there is no rail link, and the Ilidža-to-old-town road is simple by car in a quarter of an hour outside rush hour.

Arrival: King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED) and getting into Jeddah

You arrive at King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED). There is no metro in Jeddah; the Haramain high-speed rail connects the airport with Makkah and Madinah, which is superb for pilgrims, but a Jeddah hotel still needs a car from the terminal or the station. If you would rather not think about it, we book a private transfer from the airport to your hotel in Jeddah, with the driver tracking the flight in case it is late.

Onward flights or trains from Jeddah the same day can be added to the booking; let us know and we choose a Sarajevo to Jeddah departure that leaves a safe connection.

Flying with children, families and groups from Sarajevo to Jeddah

Families fly the Sarajevo to Jeddah route with us all year round. Infants under two travel on a lap at a small fare; children have a seat and a child fare where the airline offers one; pushchairs are checked free at the gate on most airlines.

For groups, we book the seats in one reservation and ask the carrier for a group fare where the numbers justify it.

Things to do in Jeddah when you land

Jeddah is Saudi Arabia's Red Sea gateway and the port of pilgrims to Makkah, with King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED) about 20 km north of the old town, the Corniche running along the coast, and the coral-stone houses of Al-Balad at its historic core. The reasons passengers fly from Sarajevo to Jeddah include Jeddah Yacht Club and marina, Obhur Creek beaches, the old Al-Alawi souk, the Jeddah Sculpture Museum along the Corniche and Al-Balad's historic houses and Naseef House. For the first meal, try mutabbaq from a street stall, fresh fish at the Bangala market and foul and tamees for breakfast.

Best time to fly from Sarajevo to Jeddah

Flights from Sarajevo to Jeddah run all year, several a week, more in summer. Jeddah is warm year-round and humid in summer; the airport is busiest around Ramadan, Hajj and the winter holidays, when the airport road and the Corniche slow down in the evenings. If you can travel outside those weeks the same seat costs less and the airports are quieter. Whatever the month, early booking is the single biggest saving.

Return flight from Jeddah to Sarajevo

We book the return leg from Jeddah to Sarajevo just as easily, typically on the same ticket. Booking both directions together lets us compare a return fare against two singles - on some airlines the return is much cheaper, on others two one-ways with different carriers win. Let us know the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.
