In principle but obviously it then means you all need appropriate visas/visa waivers for entering Saudi and not just a transit visa but its going to be a long day if you have a flight, 17hrs of running about then back to the airport and onto the next flight without material sleep.
It's a bit of a specialist topic though and probably best on a more targeted forum.0 -
Probably pertinent to include where your stopover is - assuming Jeddah you’ve a fighting chance but if Damian/Riyadh you’ll struggle
And as @DullGreyGuy suggests this is a bit specialist for here - ‘normal’ rules don’t apply in Saudi - especially for pilgrimage locations/times0 -
Why would we need a visa waiver? cant we enter the country on a Transit visa and do the Umrah on this visaDullGreyGuy said:In principle but obviously it then means you all need appropriate visas/visa waivers for entering Saudi and not just a transit visa but its going to be a long day if you have a flight, 17hrs of running about then back to the airport and onto the next flight without material sleep.
