Wego has been named the most downloaded travel app across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) for the first five months of 2025, according to the latest data from SensorTower.
The ranking reinforces Wego’s continued dominance in the region’s online travel sector.
Consistent regional growth
Between December 2024 and May 2025, Wego consistently held the top spot as the most downloaded travel search app across MENA. The app reached 2.6 million monthly active users (MAUs) in May, reflecting a 4% year-on-year increase.
In the GCC specifically, Wego has maintained its position as the most downloaded travel search app for nine consecutive months. In May alone, the app recorded 196,000 downloads, with MAUs rising to 1.93 million.
Leading travel search platform
Wego, which was already the most downloaded flight search and booking app in MENA in 2023 and 2024, has extended its lead by topping overall travel app downloads so far in 2025.
The app’s success is attributed to its localized content, real-time fare comparisons, and broad inventory from global travel partners.
With the summer travel season underway, Wego anticipates further growth in downloads and engagement. The company expects increased interest driven by holiday deals, new personalized features, and targeted offerings across key markets.
