King Khalid International Airport (RUH) serves Riyadh as the city’s primary international gateway and a regional hub for full-service carriers like Saudia and several international airlines, while some budget carriers also operate here. The airport sits about 35–40 km north of downtown Riyadh; taxi or ride-hailing typically takes 30–45 minutes depending on traffic, while airport shuttles and private transfers can take a similar time—expect fares to vary by provider. RUH offers modern lounges and extensive passenger facilities, making it comfortable for long-haul connections, but the distance from the city center and occasional peak-hour congestion can add time and cost to transfers. For domestic quick hops, Riyadh’s efficient domestic terminals usually provide frequent options.
Muscat International (MCT) is Oman’s main international gateway and typically serves full-service carriers and some regional budget airlines, positioning it as the country’s premium airport. It lies about 32 km east of downtown Muscat, with taxi rides taking roughly 20–40 minutes depending on traffic and costing typically in the moderate range; airport shuttles and private transfer services can be slightly cheaper per person for groups. The modern terminal usually offers comfortable lounges, duty-free shopping and a range of dining options, while public bus connections are limited and can be slower. Pros: efficient facilities and good connectivity for international travel; cons: longer transfer times to central areas and fewer ultra-low-cost carrier options compared with smaller regional airports.
