Umrah Flights from Sheffield to Jeddah

Doncaster Sheffield Airport has been closed to passenger flights since November 2022, and while funding has been approved to bring it back, commercial services aren’t expected to resume until at least 2027–2028. For now, pilgrims travelling from Sheffield need to use one of three nearby airports instead.

Where Sheffield Pilgrims Actually Fly From

Manchester stands out as the strongest choice for most Sheffield pilgrims, since it’s the only one of the three with a non-stop service to Jeddah.

Why Manchester Is Usually the Best Option

Saudia and Virgin Atlantic operate non-stop services from Manchester to Jeddah with nearly daily services and a flight duration of 6 hours 20 to 30 minutes. For such a long trip, saving an hour or two by doing away with a connecting stop is more than worthwhile, especially when traveling with kids and senior citizens.

Budget-Friendly Alternatives

If you’re flexible with your travel time or seeking significant savings, several major airlines offer connecting routes from Manchester through their Middle Eastern and European hubs:

Airline

Approx. Flight Time

Turkish Airlines

MAN → Istanbul → JED

9–11 hours

Qatar Airways

Etihad Airways

MAN → Abu Dhabi → JED

Umrah Flight Prices from Sheffield

Since Sheffield pilgrims are choosing between three departure airports rather than one fixed route, prices vary more than most cities. Here’s a general comparison:

Departure Airport

Typical One-Way Fare

Typical Return Fare

Manchester (direct)

£215 – £450

£520 – £900+

Leeds Bradford (connecting)

£220 – £480

£480 – £820

East Midlands (connecting)

£280 – £550

£359 – £800

Peak season (Ramadan / summer), any airport

Add roughly 30–50%

Add roughly 30–50%

Comparing all three airports before booking, rather than defaulting to whichever is nearest, is usually the fastest way to bring the total cost down.

Umrah Packages from Sheffield

With three possible departure airports and no single obvious route, working out the best flight on your own can take longer than it should. An Umrah package from Sheffield removes that decision — the flight, visa, hotels in Makkah and Madinah, and transport are all arranged for you, from whichever airport gives you the best fare and timing.

How Adam Travel Handles Sheffield Bookings

Since the Sheffield Airport remains shut, Adam Travel compares prices and schedules at Manchester, Leeds Bradford, and East Midlands airports for each individual client instead of always booking from the same airport. Adam Travel has been arranging UK Umrah travel since 1998 and is authorized by the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah of Saudi Arabia.

Every package includes:

  • A single all-in price for flight, visa, hotel, and transport
  • ATOL protection (ATOL 74904) on every booking
  • Flight options compared across all three nearby airports, not just one
  • 3, 4, and 5-star hotel choices in Makkah and Madinah
  • A £50 deposit to secure your dates, with instalments available
  • A 4.9/5 Google rating from UK pilgrims

Final Thoughts

Sheffield offers Yorkshire pilgrims a convenient and practical starting point for Umrah. While there are no direct flights from the city itself, the excellent connectivity of Manchester Airport—just an hour and a quarter away by road—puts direct flights to Jeddah within easy reach. With Saudia and Virgin Atlantic offering direct services, and a wide range of connecting options through major Middle Eastern carriers, pilgrims from South Yorkshire have genuine choice.

Your spiritual journey can begin and end close to home, saving you the time, expense, and exhaustion of travelling to airports further south. With packages starting from just £849 for a full 3-star package with flights, ATOL protection, and dedicated support for Yorkshire pilgrims, Sheffield is the natural choice for Umrah travellers across South Yorkshire and beyond.

FaQ's

Is Doncaster Sheffield Airport open again yet?

No. It closed to passenger flights in November 2022, and while reopening funding has been approved, commercial flights aren’t expected before 2027 at the earliest.

Manchester is usually the best choice, since it offers a direct flight to Jeddah. Leeds Bradford and East Midlands are worth comparing if Manchester’s fare or dates don’t suit you.

For most pilgrims, yes — the extra hour’s drive is generally worth avoiding a layover on a journey this long, especially for families or older travellers.

Yes. Adam Travel simply books your flight from whichever nearby airport — Manchester, Leeds Bradford, or East Midlands — offers the best combination of fare and schedule.

Recent reports point to limited operations as early as winter 2027, with full passenger services unlikely before summer 2028.
