Why this site exists
Travellers ask the same questions before every trip to Saudi Arabia: which terminal their airline uses, how to get from the airport to the city, whether they can get a visa on arrival, and which airport is closest to where they are going. The answers are spread across airport websites, airline notices, government portals and news reports, and they change often. In 2026 alone, Riyadh airport reorganised its terminals, Jeddah opened a new terminal, and the visa rules changed several times.
Saudi Arabia Airports brings those answers together in one place, with the date and the source of each fact.
Who we are
The site is written and maintained by The Saudi Arabia Airports desk, a small editorial team that also publishes independent airport guides for other countries. We are travellers and researchers, not an airline, an airport operator or a government body.
What we are not
- We are not affiliated with the General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA), Matarat, any airport company or any airline.
- We do not sell tickets, visas, transfers or hotel rooms, and we do not take commissions.
- We do not publish live flight times. They change by the minute, so always use your airline or the official airport website on the day.
How the site is funded
The site is free to read. It may show advertising served by Google, which is clearly separated from the editorial content. Advertisers have no say in what we write.
