RIYADH: The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah in Saudi Arabia announced on Wednesday that it will secure alternative flights and provide additional seats for pilgrims coming from Britain, the US, and Europe.  In cooperation with relevant authorities, visas will also be issued immediately to the pilgrims entering the Kingdom as part of the efforts.  This comes after people faced technical issues while applying for hajj via the electronic portal and had access to limited seats on flights.  The ministry reiterated that it welcomes all pilgrims who have completed their procedures via the electronic platform, as well as those who have arrived in Saudi Arabia. تُساهم #وزارة_الحج_والعمرة في معالجة الصعوبات التي تُواجه المستفيدين من البوابة الإلكترونيّة لحجّاج دول أوروبا وأمريكا وأستراليا. #مكة_والمدينة_في_انتظاركم_بشوق #بسلامٍ_آمنين pic.twitter.com/WpcvdBcg7E — وزارة الحج والعمرة (@HajMinistry) June 29, 2022
