The Opportunity

Why Now?
The Shift Is Here.

Global travel demand is undergoing a structural transformation. Saudi Arabia is geographically and culturally positioned to capture this unprecedented premium moment.

✈️
Premium Short Escapes
Global affluent travellers increasingly choose 3–5 day premium escapes over traditional long-haul holidays, prioritising quality over duration.
🌍
Warm Destinations Within Reach
European and Asian travellers seek warm destinations within 4–5 flight hours — a radius where Saudi Arabia holds an extraordinary competitive position.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
Halal Luxury Segment
Family-oriented, alcohol-free luxury is among the fastest-growing segments in global travel. Saudi Arabia is uniquely built to lead this market.

Market Gap

The Barriers
We Are Solving.

Four structural barriers limit Saudi Arabia's tourism acceleration. Sakina addresses each one systematically and at scale.

01
Perception Gap
International travellers lack a curated, premium-positioned entry point into the Kingdom. Sakina's brand directly addresses this narrative gap.
02
Route Architecture
Curated short-stay premium flight routes from Europe to Saudi destinations remain underdeveloped, leaving significant inbound demand unmet.
03
Aviation-Destination Integration
Current operators transport passengers. Sakina structures end-to-end inbound journeys, bridging aviation directly with destination experience.
04
Capital Leakage
Tourism spending flows outside the Saudi ecosystem. Sakina's digital retention system structurally redirects capital back into the Kingdom.

The Visionary
Behind Sakina.

Alisa Zahavalka — Founder & CEO of Sakina
Alisa Zahavalka
Founder & Chief Executive Officer

"I always believed aviation could be more than transport — it could be a bridge between cultures and an engine for nations."

Alisa Zahavalka was born in Belarus and built her life across Europe, spending many years in Poland before setting her sights on a far larger vision. From an early age, she was captivated by aviation — the idea that a single flight could connect distant worlds, open economies, and change how people experience the planet.

That lifelong fascination became Sakina. Rather than simply founding a travel company, Alisa designed a national tourism instrument — one that brings premium international visitors into Saudi Arabia while structurally retaining their spending inside the Kingdom. Sakina is her answer to a question she spent years asking: how do you build aviation that truly serves a nation?
