How ticket booking works

Send the route, the date, the number of passengers and, if you have one, a preferred time. The desk checks availability, confirms the fare in writing, issues the ticket in your name and sends it on WhatsApp. If the ticket connects with a transfer or a tour, the desk times them together.

Our WhatsApp desk answers day and night in Arabic and English, confirms each booking in writing and stays reachable for the whole trip.
