AlFursan Store: a permanent entry point in the Saudia app

Today the store has one door, the rotating "Shop with Miles" card in the Exclusive offers carousel on Home. It goes away when the campaign goes away. These two changes give the store a permanent place, and neither one needs a new component.

Merit for Saudia Al Fursan  |  v0.1, 16 September 2026  |  Drawn over the live app screens supplied by Thamer Bamieh, 11 and 14 September 2026

PLACEMENT 1 AlFursan tab → Miles actions list

Add Shop with Miles as the second row, directly under Book with Miles. This is the screen that holds the Miles balance and every other Miles action, so it is where a member decides what to spend Miles on.

Why the second row

Book with Miles stays first. Flights are the primary redemption and the placement does not demote them.

The balance is on the same screen. A member reads "0 Reward Miles" and then decides. The store has to be in that list, or it is not part of the decision.

The member is already signed in here. The store header already reads the session and prints the Miles balance, so the handoff can carry it straight through with no second login.

Cost. One list row. No new pattern, no new screen.

PLACEMENT 2 Side menu → Additional Services

Add AlFursan Store with the existing ↗ external marker, directly after Miles Calculator. The side menu is the app's permanent directory, and it already carries every other partner surface this way.

Why after Miles Calculator

It groups the two Miles items. Miles Calculator and the store are the only Miles entries in this menu.

The pattern already exists. Saudia Business, Hotels, Car rental, Umrah, NUSUK and SaudiaBEYOND all open outside the app and all carry the ↗ marker. The store is a webview on alfursanstore.saudia.com, so it is the same case.

This menu never rotates. That is what makes the entry permanent in the strict sense.

Cost. One list row.

SCOPE What we are not asking for

No fifth bottom tab. The bottom navigation is the most contested space in the app and the store is a webview, so a tab would stall the request. The carousel card stays and keeps doing campaign work. A fixed store tile on Home is a later growth item, not part of this approval.
