The airport is situated 11 miles (19km) from Jeddah.
Getting to the city
Taxis are available. Most visitors opt for the limousine taxi service, fares for which can be negotiated with the driver. There is a bus service connecting to the city but this tends to be crowded and unpleasant and is usually avoided by visitors.
