Umrah Flights from London to Jeddah

Preparation of your spiritual tour from London to the sacred place of Makkah starts with the important task of obtaining the proper airline to the destination airport – King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED) located in Jeddah. This airport, being a major entrance to the Holy Cities, is a first step of the majority of pilgrims’ Umrah journey. For British Muslims living in London, as well as other cities of the UK, Umrah tour has never been easier and cheaper thanks to various choices of flights, Umrah packages at affordable prices.

Being the Umrah capital of the UK, London provides around 65% of pilgrims from the country. That means that there is strong competition on the market and real opportunities for choosing from £600 budget flights to luxury five-star packages costing more than £2,500.

Best Time to Book Umrah Flights to Jeddah

Fares on the London–Jeddah route move with the Islamic calendar and UK school holidays:

Cheapest months: typically, November and other off-peak months outside Ramadan and summer
Most expensive months: Ramadan and July, when demand from both Umrah pilgrims and general travelers’ peaks
Booking window: aim to book 2–3 months ahead for the best combination of price and flight choice, earlier for Ramadan Umrah

If your dates are flexible, shifting your trip by even a week either side of school holidays can bring the fare down noticeably.
