gulfnews : Saudi Arabia to liberalise aviation

Saudi Arabia plans to open its skies gradually, phasing in new airlines to avoid an abrupt crowding of the sector, according to a senior official at the kingdom’s top aviation authority.
The Middle East’s biggest economy is in the process of vetting applications for new airline licenses to operate out of the country, as it looks to shore up its under-developed transport sector to meet growing demand.
The kingdom earlier this year said it received applications for licenses from 14 companies including Gulf and Chinese consortia.
