When the famous Saudi planes rolled into Riyadh for the grand Riyadh Season, the city was buzzing with excitement! Hundreds of people lined the streets, proudly decked out in traditional Saudi clothes, waving flags, and cheering as the planes made their grand journey. But behind the scenes, the real heroes were the Pakistani drivers who made it all happen.

These hardworking drivers took on the huge task of transporting the iconic planes on massive trucks from Jeddah to Riyadh

Without their dedication, those planes wouldn’t have arrived for the big moment. Videos of them have been going viral on TikTok, as a Saudi resident was seen appreciating their hard work and dedication.

Residents were also seen decked out in Saudi attire to welcome these planes to their cities along the way
