Jakarta, Indonesian pilgrims heading to Saudi Arabia to perform Hajj this year continue to benefit from the Makkah Route Initiative services at the Soekarno-Hatta International Airport here.
Pilgrims interviewed praised the initiative and Saudi Arabia’s efforts to serve pilgrims in the best possible way and ensure that they complete their Hajj journey comfortably.
The initiative entails streamlining travel procedures for pilgrims in their home countries. Upon their arrival in the Kingdom, they will be received in a designated hall and then transported to their accommodations without having to wait at the airport. Their luggage will then be delivered to them.
The Ministry of Interior has been implementing the initiative for six consecutive years in cooperation with the ministries of foreign affairs, health, Hajj and Umrah, and media, the General Authority of Civil Aviation, the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority, the Saudi Data and AI Authority, and the ?Pilgrim Experience Program, to enhance the Hajj journey
