Transportation to Airport from Dammam City Center
King Fahd Intl. Airport
There are bus services that you can use to go to the Dammam King Fahd International Airport from the city center. If you want a more comfortable travel, you can get on a taxi. Another alternative is renting a car to go to the airport.
Taxi
You can easily find a taxi in the city center. Your hotel can also help you about this issue. Because there is no taximeter in the taxi, you should bargain and agree with the fare before you get on. The fare you will pay should be around 50-60 SAR. From Dammam city center, you can arrive at the airport in about half an hour by taxi.
Bus
If you prefer going to the airport by a public transportation vehicle, you can get on the bus from the bus station, which is very close to the city center. Bus ticket price is 12 SAR per person. It is possible to reach the airport in about 40 minutes by bus. Public transportation can be a good alternative for those coming from Al-Khobar and Al-Hasa. Once you have reached Dammam city center by bus, you can easily get to the airport by transferring from here.

If you wish, your hotel can also help you to rent a car. It is possible to arrive at the airport in half an hour with the car you rent. From the city center you must connect to King Fahd road and follow the airport sign boards.
Airport Information

Transportation to Alroy Downs City Center from Airport
Alroy Downs Airport
Generally, regional flights are organized with small airplanes from Alroy Downs Airport, which is located near Alroy Downs, a small settlement in the north of Australia. You can go to the city center by renting a car before visiting the airport terminal or after going to the city, or you can prefer taxis and private shuttles.
Car Rental
Passengers who will land at Alroy Downs Airport can prefer renting a car from the terminal or nearby for going to the center, which is not so far. Around the airport, small and local rental companies generally provide service to the passengers. Do not forget to bring your passport and other travel documents to the rental office in order to take your car from these companies without any problems. After you rent a car and leave the airport, directions for city center will guide you to reach the center of Alroy Downs easily.
Taxi
The airport is generally used for regional and short-distance flights. Therefore, it is not always possible to find a taxi easily in front of the terminal. If you want to come to the center from the airport by a taxi, you must obtain information from the accommodation facility you will stay at or your local guide in advance. Taxis carry passengers over the price written on the taximeter and you don’t generally have a big chance of bargaining. However, you can talk to the driver beforehand and ask for some discount if you go to a farther place outside the center.
Private Shuttle
Fast, safe and comfortable private shuttles are among the fantastic alternatives to prefer while travelling between Alroy Downs Airport and the center. Those who will come to the center especially with 4-5 or more people can make a reservation beforehand and prefer traveling with private shuttles. Alroy Downs is not such a big settlement, and therefore, service facilities can be limited in some periods. So, you can make research about services before your travel to the city and reserve a suitable vehicle with the support of the hotel where you will stay close to the airport if needed.
