Umrah Flights from Birmingham to Jeddah

Birmingham Airport gives pilgrims across the Midlands a direct route out of the UK for Umrah, without the need to travel down to London first. This page covers the airlines flying this route, how long the journey takes, and — most importantly — what you should expect to pay.

Flight Time and Route

There’s no non-stop service between Birmingham and Jeddah at present, so every journey includes one stopover. Total flying time, including the connection, typically runs from around 6 hours 15 minutes upwards, depending on the layover airport and length of the stop.

Airlines Flying Birmingham to Jeddah

A handful of major carriers cover this route, each routing through a different hub:

  • Saudia — the most booked airline on this route by UK travellers
  • Pegasus Airlines — budget option, usually via Istanbul
  • Turkish Airlines — via Istanbul
  • Qatar Airways — via Doha
  • Etihad Airways — via Abu Dhabi
  • Oman Air — via Muscat

Saudia carries the largest share of Birmingham–Jeddah Umrah travellers, but Pegasus and Turkish Airlines are worth comparing if you’re booking on a tighter budget.

A few things that move the price

  • Day of the week — Thursday departures tend to run cheaper than Sunday on this route
  • Booking window — fares often dip when booked around 3–4 weeks out, though for Umrah travel, booking 2–3 months ahead is usually safer for seat availability
  • Season — November is consistently the cheapest month to fly; Ramadan and the summer months carry the highest demand and highest prices
  • Number of stops — accepting a longer layover can bring the fare down noticeably compared to the shortest connection

Cheapest Time to Book

In case you have some flexibility in your travel plans, then November will prove to be the cheapest month for you to travel through this route annually. Thursday flights will be cheaper than flights at weekends. If you want to travel during Ramadan or Umrah peak season, then booking earlier is highly recommended.

Final Thoughts

One of the best places to leave from for Umrah in the UK is Birmingham. Not only does Birmingham Airport provide direct flights with Saudia Airlines, but it is also well-connected by various one-stop airlines based in the Middle East. This gives pilgrims coming from the Midlands region and other parts of the country options depending on what suits them best.

The duration of the flight from Birmingham to Jeddah is only about 6 hours. This is less time than it takes some Midlands residents to drive to London and board a flight from Heathrow. Let your journey for spiritual purposes begin and end at your local airport.

FaQ's

Is there a direct flight from Birmingham to Jeddah?

No. All current routes involve one stopover, most commonly via Istanbul, Doha, Abu Dhabi, or Muscat.

Including the connection, journeys typically take from around 6 hours 15 minutes, though total travel time depends on the length of the layover.

November is usually the cheapest month, while Ramadan and summer see the highest prices due to demand.

Pegasus Airlines generally offers the lowest fares, though Turkish Airlines and Saudia are worth comparing for better connection times and baggage allowances.

For Ramadan or peak-season travel, 2–3 months ahead is recommended. Outside peak periods, fares can sometimes be found cheaper 3–4 weeks before departure.
