The Jeddah Airports has launched "Journey 45," an awareness campaign to streamline the departure process for Hajj pilgrims leaving through King Abdulaziz International Airport. The initiative will run until the last pilgrims depart for their home countries, involves over 50 government and operational agencies.

It will broadcast educational content covering key information including luggage shipping, Zamzam transport procedures, travel formalities, and a list of prohibited items. Additionally, the campaign will highlight services available within the airport lounges.
Jeddah Airports recognizes the diversity of pilgrims and has taken steps to ensure the campaign reaches a wide audience. Messages will be translated into five different languages: Arabic, English, Chinese, French, and Urdu.

Ophelia the escaped zoo otter is back home but Louie remains elusive — perhaps in search of a mate.
The two North American river otters escaped two weeks ago from the NEW Zoo & Adventure Park in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Ophelia was captured Friday night, the zoo said in a Facebook post.
Her return was kept under wraps until Tuesday while she was held for observation. A veterinarian’s examination Monday cleared her for return to her enclosure, The Associated Press reported.
However, she “may not always be visible to guests,” the zoo said. “Ophelia has always been a bit shy and enjoys tucking into things to take naps throughout the day.”
The mammals escaped through a hole in a fence during a snowstorm.
Louie remains on the lam. “This is otter breeding season and we expect that, as a male otter, Louie is likely ranging a bit further from home than Ophelia did.”
It's unlikely Louie is too far away, the zoo said. Otters are territorial creatures.
He's undoubtedly safe — otters are native to the area — and poses no harm to humans.
The zoo has had help from a tracker, motion-activated cameras and reports from residents who see the critters, particularly those who are able to take photos or video of the animal.
