The Saudi General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) said on Saturday that it changed the schedules of pilgrims' return trips to leave the kingdom on September 27 instead of September 26.

In a publication, the GACA asked travel agencies working with the kingdom to change their flight schedules accordingly.

Worshippers perform principle rites which start on the 8th of the Islamic month of Dhul Hijja and end on the 13th (this year September 22-27).
