Leadin Aviation carried out a comprehensive market study and traffic forecasting exercise for a network of 27 airports across Saudi Arabia. The scope included detailed market assessments and route potential analyses, with traffic forecasts developed both at individual airport level and for the national airport system as a whole, including the key hubs of Riyadh, Dammam, and Jeddah.

​

The forecasting process was developed in close coordination with the Matarat team and through consultations with key national stakeholders, ensuring alignment with local priorities and the country’s broader aviation strategy. Long-term growth drivers were fully integrated into the analysis, including major infrastructure investments, large-scale events, and tourism development initiatives.

​

Through an integrated, system-wide forecasting approach, the assignment provided a robust and forward-looking understanding of demand evolution, supporting strategic planning and long-term decision-making for Saudi Arabia’s national airport network.
