๐ข Terminal Information
King Khalid International Airport operates through five terminals with distinct functions and passenger flows. Terminals 1-4 form the main complex serving international and some domestic flights, with Saudia as the primary hub carrier using Terminal 1 and part of Terminal 2. Terminal 5 is a separate facility dedicated primarily to domestic flights and some regional routes, connected to the main complex via a free shuttle bus service (8-12 minutes). Walking distances within the main terminal complex range from 10-20 minutes between gates, while Terminal 5 offers shorter gate distances due to its focused domestic operations.
The airport features extensive amenities including duty-free shopping with international brands and traditional Saudi products, diverse dining options featuring Middle Eastern and international cuisine, multiple business lounges (Saudia's Alfursan Lounge, independent VIP lounges), prayer facilities, family areas, and comprehensive accessibility services. Each terminal complex offers modern security systems, efficient immigration processing, and comfortable passenger waiting areas. Ground transportation includes SAPTCO buses to Riyadh city center (45 minutes), the planned Riyadh Metro connection, taxi services, and ride-sharing options. Recent 2024-2025 enhancements include expanded retail areas, improved terminal connectivity, modernized security technology, and enhanced digital services as part of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 aviation modernization program.

๐ข Terminal Information
Bisha Airport (BHH) serves the city of Bisha in the Asir Province of Saudi Arabia. This regional airport is a crucial transport link for the local community, connecting it to major Saudi Arabian cities like Riyadh and Jeddah via Saudi Arabian Airlines. The airport operates from a small, functional terminal building designed for efficient processing of domestic passenger traffic. Its layout is straightforward, featuring integrated check-in, security, and departure areas, reflecting its role as a regional hub for business and local travel.\n\nSecurity procedures at BHH are robust and adhere to Saudi Arabian national aviation regulations. Passengers can expect thorough screening of both carry-on and checked luggage, along with personal security checks before entering the departure lounge. Processing times are generally efficient due to the airport's regional nature, though it is advisable to arrive with ample time during peak travel periods. Boarding is typically conducted via a short walk across the tarmac to the aircraft, as the terminal does not utilize jet bridges.\n\nAmenities within the terminal include a few cafes and snack bars offering a range of beverages and light meals, catering to local tastes. Prayer rooms are available for both men and women. Small shops may sell souvenirs and travel essentials. For ground transportation, taxis are readily available outside the terminal, providing convenient connections to Bisha city center.
