Codeshare agreements

Flyadeal has a codeshare agreement with one airline:

Saudia

Fleet

As of June 2024, flyadeal operates the following aircraft:

flyadeal Fleet
Aircraft	Total	Orders	Passengers	Notes
Airbus A320-200	11	—	186
Airbus A320neo	21	22	186	Further options for 20 aircraft transferred from Saudia. One aircraft parked
Airbus A321neo	—	39	TBA	To be delivered by 2026.
Airbus A330-200	2	—	TBA	Leased from Aircastle via GullivAir
Airbus A330-300	1	—	TBA	Leased from Aviator Capital via Air Anka.
Boeing 777-300	1	—	TBA	Leased from Alexandria Airlines. Registration SU-KHP.
Total	35	61

On 7 July 2019, flyadeal revealed its intention to order 30 Airbus A320neo aircraft with a further 20 options. flyadeal had previously committed to the Boeing 737 MAX but chose not to firm up its equivalent order of 30 aircraft and 20 options due to the Boeing 737 MAX groundings. Boeing attributed the decision to "scheduling requirements".

In July 2021, it was stated that flyadeal will start taking delivery of A320neo later in the year, as part of an order for up to 50 aircraft. The low cost carrier's future plans call for a fleet of 100 aircraft.

Incidents

On 10 February 2021, a flyadeal Airbus A320 registered as "HZ-FAB" was reported damaged after a Houthi drone attack at Abha International Airport in Saudi Arabia. No one was reported injured and investigations are still ongoing. The aircraft was repaired, and returned to service.
