Hospitality and Tourism

Saudi Arabia has the largest hospitality market in the GCC region. It has approximately 47% of the international arrivals heading to the region, and is also the largest in terms of hotel rooms and apartment capacity.  Furthermore, the government is planning to expand the travel and tourism sector which will bring about 88 million visitors by the end of 2020. Mega projects including the Jabal Omar Development and expansions in Mecca and Madina will boost the travel and tourism sector including car rental, accommodation, land and air transportation. As a result of this growth it expected that the average salary for individuals working in hotels, airports, and leisure companies will be on the rise.
