received and reviewed more than 700 designs from more than 140 young Saudi based
designers,
A final shortlist of three female designers has been selected and a public vote will now be conducted through social media.
In a statement, the airline said: “Flyadeal was created with the Saudi 2030 vision in mind for a contemporary, social and connected world, where people exchange ideas and show their
creativity. That’s why we decided to invite young designers in the Kingdom to give us their ideas for the style of our crew. We are impressed by the great ideas posted on social media during this contest and would like to say a big thank you to all the participants.”
Votes can be placed using Instagram on @flyadeal and be tracked on the airline’s Facebook and Twitter pages.
