Flying out of Jeddah from KAEC
If you live in King Abdullah Economic City or are spending a holiday there, flying anywhere starts with a road trip to King Abdulaziz Airport in Jeddah. The good news: the airport is on the north side of Jeddah, the side closest to you, so there is no need to cross the whole city. The real question is when to leave home so you arrive on time without a long wait at the terminal.
Mishwar Al Haramain works that out with you when you book, then sends a private car with driver to your door at the agreed time, with a fixed fare for the whole car paid on arrival.
How we set your pickup time
- You send us your flight number, departure time and airline.
- We estimate the drive from your KAEC district to the airport and add a margin for stops.
- We factor in your airline's check-in time for domestic or international flights.
- We send you a suggested pickup time to confirm.
On the day
- The driver arrives at your home, hotel or compound on time.
- He helps load your bags and you head south along the coast road towards Jeddah.
- He drops you outside your flight's departures terminal.
- You pay on arrival; normal bookings need no prepayment.
