Riyadh: The Saudi Arabian government has announced the mandatory implementation of the 'Luggage-Free Traveller' Initiative for haj pilgrims, including those from Brunei Darussalam. The initiative involves weighing and sending luggage before the flight date. It is part of efforts to enhance the experience of pilgrims by alleviating the burden of handling luggage and ensuring smooth movement, particularly during their return journey from the Holy Land.
According to Radio Television Brunei, this initiative aims to streamline the travel experience for haj pilgrims by minimizing logistical challenges associated with luggage handling. By implementing this system, the Saudi Arabian authorities seek to improve overall pilgrim satisfaction and operational efficiency during the haj season.
