Riyadh is served mainly by King Khalid International Airport (RUH), the city’s primary international hub that handles most long-haul and regional flights and is typically used by full-service carriers alongside a growing number of low-cost operators. The airport lies about 35–40 km north of the city center; transfer options include metered taxis (roughly 30–45 minutes depending on traffic), private cars or ride-hailing services, and scheduled airport shuttles—expect transfer fares to vary by provider.
