Abu Ammar Abdulla, Head of Business of South Asia Travel and Hajj Service, said that this company will work specifically to fill the existing deficiencies in the Hajj and Umrah service sector. These include ending excessive pricing and opaque payment systems, preventing misinformation and fraudulent campaigns, modern technology-based booking and tracking systems, and providing 24-hour support services through experienced muallim and trained guides.

South Asia Travel and Hajj Service will provide group and customized packages for Hajj and Umrah pilgrims, visa processing, air ticketing, hotel reservations in Makkah and Medina, local transportation, muallim and guide assistance, real-time customer support, and special training and seminars for Hajj pilgrims.
