I think this is a good initiative. I wonder if they could send some of their Mutawa to Edgeware Road because how these young Saudis are driving is criminally dangerous.

I just wanted to let anyone who is keeping tabs this that I didnt find this funny in the slightest. There was no broad smile or any recognition of clever satire.
Nothing to see here. . . .

No it is not brilliant nor is it satire, brilliant it would have been when the writer had been subtle …missed opportunity though!

Excellent article and every good fictional story always has a little truth, so give it time and something similar will happen. Such as, no Alcohol on international flights for non-Muslims , only serving bland tasteless meat or turning off the entertainment system for 200+ people because one person finds it offensive.

no bodywill take the saudia airline flight no way

PAE – you only have half the story…
In addition to allowing religious police on the flight, Saudi Airlines will force all air hostesses to wear clothing that are at least three sizes larger than they should wear so that their body contours do not show (currently the standard is only one size larger). Bridget Jones underpants will become mandatory for all air hostesses.
Sparkling apple juice will no longer be served in wine glasses but rather in plastic throw-away cups as the apple juice could be mistaken for champagne or other shameful infidel drinks.
Seat numbers will be completely removed so that families (who have more than eight members) who never cared to reserve their seats can rearrange their seats as they please. New rules will be introduced so that children up to age of sixty can sit next to their parents no matter how short the flight is.
To complete the Saudi Arabian experience, all airline toilets will be perpetually flooded due to over -pressured hoses.
Smoking will be permitted on all flights as long as it is done discretely.
In Saudi Arabia all disenfranchised immigration staff will be replaced by Saudi males who were previously employed in female lingerie shops. Apparently they have the right skill set for the job.

Avarage Joe, I think you got a bit mixed up, it was a Mini and it was used in the Italian Job not a 911 in the Mossad job.

Yes this is good, religious police for all GCC airlines. Other airlines around our holy lands are infidel airlines serving filthy alcohol and having inappropriately dressed women who try to tempt our faith. Hear our faithful cries, god and goat, behead the rest.

This is the second time I read this and it just got funnier xD
P.S. Unaccompanied women would be kicked off the plane and sent back home according to the Mutawa rules.

Will all female pilots have to be accompanied by their fathers or husbands whilst flying the plane? Oh hang on, if women driving leads to homosexuality and the total loss of virgins in Saudi, are women allowed to be pilots????

It think it is a very intelligent decision the Saudi arabian government. Saudi airline being the national airline. Such decision are mandatory for proper maintenance of law and order. Especially during the tourist seasons. I fully support this initiative.

This although is an initiative taken with good intentions, fails to address the main problem. You cant force people like this. This only drives them away from Islam. I’ve lived in saudia almost 18 years. Some of the best Muslim people I’ve met there, however on the other hand the more mottawas force and stricken laws, the more this stuff starts to spread and happen underground.
Lol if they really want something like this I suggest sending mottawas for saudi nationals who use other airlines and drink like an open bar on the flights out
