The hike in the international airfare coincided with the summer season, Okaz newspaper reported, citing the General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) spokesman Ibrahim Al-Rusa.
Accordingly, GACA adopted a free-market policy to encourage competition.

He indicated that the growth would undoubtedly be upward, adding tickets prices do not constitute the main motive for travel.
