🛂 Visa required for Philippine passport holders — up to 30 days
Unlike most piso-fare.com routes, Saudi Arabia is not visa-free for Filipinos. Most travellers apply through VFS TasHeel in the Philippines (fees from ~₱2,000, 3–5 working days). If you already hold a used US, UK, or Schengen visa, you qualify for the faster online Saudi eVisa instead. Bring your passport, flight itinerary, hotel booking or host invitation letter, and proof of funds. Apply well before booking non-refundable travel dates.

Month-by-month price guide for Manila to Jeddah flights
💡 Pro tip: November is consistently the cheapest month — often ₱28,000–₱38,000 roundtrip without any seat sale. Avoid the Christmas/New Year window (Dec 20–Jan 5) and the weeks around Hajj season, when fares have surged past ₱55,000–₱60,000. *Ramadan, Eid, and Hajj shift roughly 11 days earlier each year on the Gregorian calendar — the months marked above are approximate for the current cycle, so always check the current-year Islamic calendar before booking around them.
📅 Jeddah events & fare surges
MNL → Jeddah fares spike hard around these windows — book early or avoid entirely. Islamic calendar dates shift ~11 days earlier each year
🕋 Hajj season
Dhul Hijjah (Islamic calendar) — shifts ~11 days earlier each year; fell late May–early June in 2026
+150%
avg fare surge
The single biggest fare event on this route, by far. Hundreds of thousands of pilgrims move through Jeddah in the weeks around Hajj, and general seat capacity on Saudia and PAL tightens hard even for travellers not going on pilgrimage. Regular ₱35,000–₱40,000 fares have surged past ₱60,000 roundtrip in the tightest weeks. Filipino Hajj pilgrims travel on separate NCMF-coordinated group visas and charter-adjacent bookings — this surge is about general seat scarcity, not those dedicated flights.
💡 Avoid booking regular tourism travel within 3-4 weeks either side of Hajj dates unless you're travelling for the pilgrimage itself — check the current year's Islamic calendar first.
🎄 Christmas & New Year (OFW travel)
December 20 – January 5
+60%
avg fare surge
The biggest predictable, non-Islamic-calendar surge on this route. With close to 900,000 OFWs in Saudi Arabia, Christmas is when the largest share of the Filipino community books home leave at once. Fares that sit at ₱35,000–₱42,000 in November routinely climb to ₱50,000–₱60,000 roundtrip in this window, and both Saudia and PAL sell out their best economy seats months ahead.
💡 Book by September for December travel if your employer has confirmed your leave dates — this is not a route where last-minute deals appear.
🌙 Ramadan & Eid al-Fitr
Islamic calendar — shifts ~11 days earlier each year; fell Feb–Mar in 2026
+70%
avg fare surge
Umrah demand climbs sharply through Ramadan as Muslims travel to perform pilgrimage during the holy month, and Eid al-Fitr itself is a major family-reunion travel period for Saudi-based OFWs and residents. Seats on MNL–JED tighten noticeably for about two weeks either side of Eid. Muslim Filipino travellers should book their Nusuk app Umrah slots well ahead of arrival.
💡 Book 8+ weeks ahead if your trip touches Eid al-Fitr — check the confirmed date for the current year, since it's announced only shortly before based on moon sighting.
🎡 Jeddah Season
Mid-June through September, roughly 85–90 days
+25%
avg fare surge
Saudi Arabia's flagship summer entertainment programme — Corniche concerts, the Red Sea International Film Festival, and Al-Balad heritage evenings — draws steady regional and international visitor traffic to Jeddah through summer. The fare effect is moderate compared to Hajj or Christmas, but daytime heat regularly exceeds 40°C, so this isn't peak comfort travel for most Filipino visitors despite the events on offer.
💡 If you're coming specifically for Jeddah Season, evening events are far more bearable than daytime sightseeing — plan accordingly.
🇸🇦 Saudi National Day
September 23 (public holiday, several days of festivities)
+20%
avg fare surge
A nationwide public holiday with fireworks, concerts, and civic celebrations across Jeddah. Domestic Saudi travel spikes around this date, which tightens seat availability on the Jeddah-bound legs of connecting itineraries more than it directly inflates the MNL–JED nonstop fare — still enough to notice if you're booking close to the date.
💡 A minor bump compared to Hajj, Eid, or Christmas — worth noting but rarely worth restructuring a trip around.
📊 How to read this: Surge percentages are averages vs the same route in a non-event week. A +60% surge on a ₱38,000 base fare means roughly ₱60,800. Hajj season is the most extreme fare event on this entire route — bigger than anything Southeast Asian routes see. The single best thing you can do: subscribe for alerts, confirm the current year's Islamic calendar dates, and book MNL → Jeddah 6-10 weeks ahead outside of these windows.

Is Jeddah cheaper than Singapore? On the ground, roughly comparable — a kabsa meal at a local eatery runs about the same as a Singapore hawker plate. But the flight itself is the real cost difference: MNL–Jeddah is a 10.5-hour nonstop starting around ₱32,000 roundtrip, versus a 4-hour MNL–Singapore flight that can go on sale for under ₱6,000. This is not a "quick cheap weekend" route the way Southeast Asian destinations are — it's a considered trip, usually tied to visiting family or a specific occasion, and the flight cost alone reflects that.
🇵🇭 Filipino traveller intel — Jeddah edition
Things a Skyscanner page would never tell you
You cannot book this route the way you'd book Bangkok or Kuala Lumpur — the visa comes first. Most Filipinos apply for a Saudi tourist visa through VFS TasHeel, which takes 3-5 working days and costs from around ₱2,000. If you already hold a used US, UK, or Schengen visa, apply for the faster Saudi eVisa instead. Either way, start the visa process before you commit to non-refundable flight dates — this is the single biggest planning mistake first-time Jeddah travellers make.
Hajj season crushes seat availability on this route even if you're not going on pilgrimage. Regular MNL–JED fares that sit around ₱35,000 have surged past ₱60,000 roundtrip during peak Hajj weeks, and economy seats sell out fast as general capacity gets absorbed by pilgrim travel. Hajj and Ramadan dates shift roughly 11 days earlier every year on the Gregorian calendar — always check the current year's Islamic calendar, not last year's dates, before booking.
Alcohol is illegal with zero exceptions — not even duty-free bought at NAIA before your flight. Saudi customs enforcement is strict, and this is one of the few rules on any piso-fare.com route where the consequence for getting it wrong is genuinely serious, not just an inconvenience. Leave it at home. The same caution applies to some common Philippine medications — declare anything narcotic-adjacent, and check ahead if unsure.
Balikbayan box cargo companies operate directly out of Jeddah — you don't need to route through Manila first. LBC Express, Skyway Cargo, and several other DTI-accredited freight forwarders have branches serving Jeddah and Riyadh directly. This is unlike some routes where OFWs have to consolidate shipments through a Manila-based agent — check current rates with your preferred forwarder before assuming it's complicated.
Close to 900,000 Filipinos live and work in Saudi Arabia — the largest OFW population anywhere in the world. That scale means Christmas and Eid periods see genuine capacity crunches on Saudia and PAL, not just price bumps. If you're an OFW with confirmed home-leave dates or a family member planning to visit one, book the moment dates are locked in — waiting until "closer to the date" on this route usually means paying near the top of the fare range, not catching a late deal.

Yes. Saudi Arabia is not visa-free for Philippine passport holders. Most Filipinos apply for a standard tourist visa through VFS TasHeel in the Philippines — fees start around ₱2,000 and processing takes 3–5 working days. If you already hold a used US, UK, or Schengen visa, you qualify for the faster online Saudi eVisa instead. The tourist visa allows a stay of up to 30 days per entry.
Direct flights from Manila (MNL) to Jeddah (JED) take approximately 10 hours 35 minutes to 11 hours nonstop, covering roughly 8,600 km. Both Saudia and Philippine Airlines operate the route with Boeing 787 Dreamliners, landing at King Abdulaziz International Airport, Jeddah's only airport.
November is consistently the cheapest month, with roundtrip fares often in the ₱28,000–₱38,000 range. The two windows to avoid are Christmas/New Year (December 20–January 5), when OFW holiday travel pushes fares past ₱55,000–₱60,000, and the weeks around Hajj season, when general seat capacity tightens sharply. Ramadan and Hajj dates shift roughly 11 days earlier each year on the Gregorian calendar, so always check the current Islamic calendar before booking around them.
Only Saudia and Philippine Airlines fly this route nonstop — there is no budget carrier competing on price, which is why average fares run higher than Southeast Asian routes from Manila. Saudia and PAL fares are usually close to each other; the cheaper option shifts week to week depending on which airline is running a promo. Connecting options via Qatar Airways (Doha), Emirates (Dubai), or Etihad (Abu Dhabi) can occasionally undercut the nonstop fare but add several hours of travel time.
A piso fare is a promotional fare — popularised by Cebu Pacific — where base fares drop dramatically for a limited window. Because Cebu Pacific doesn't fly MNL–Jeddah nonstop, true piso-style deals are rarer here than on Southeast Asian routes. What we do track is Saudia and PAL promo pricing dropping regular fares from around ₱38,000 down to roughly ₱20,000–₱24,000 roundtrip, mostly during the November low season. Subscribe to piso-fare.com alerts to catch these when they appear.
Bring your approved visa, a passport valid at least 6 months beyond entry, a confirmed return ticket, and proof of accommodation or a host's invitation letter if visiting relatives. Alcohol is illegal to bring in under any circumstances. If you're visiting family, carry a copy of their Iqama (residence permit) and passport — Saudi immigration officers may ask for this to confirm the purpose of your visit.
