SPSS and Smart (PLS) v3.0. have been used for analysis.Findings: The results show that service quality, price fairness, and word of mouth are the most significant factors in customer loyalty. However, religiosity did not moderate between these variables and customer loyalty.Implications: The study suggests that Umrah travel agencies should focus on service quality and price fairness to build customer loyalty. The study also provides several theoretical and practical recommendations for future researchers.
