Saudi air carrier "Saudia" decided to seat passengers in an airplane depending on sex.

Since 2015, the airline "Saudia" will put men and women in their planes separately from each other. Such a decision by the leadership of the airline "Saudia" was taken after there were numerous complaints that next to a foreign wife or relative another person could sit down, which contradicts Muslim laws.

The airline noted that if a man and woman are not linked by ties of kinship, get a ticket for adjacent seats will be impossible. It is believed that, in turn, the new rules of the air carrier may reduce the number of customers, but the representatives of the airline did not comment on it.
