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.
Car Rental
Car rental is highly preferred by tourists since public transportation in Dammam can be generally distressful. In the city center you can see the offices of many car rental companies. 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
Although the King Fahd International Airport, which is 20 km northeast of the city center, is at world standards, problems can sometimes emerge and long queues may occur in passport control. It is appropriate to arrange your arrival time to the airport in order not to be exposed to unexpected situations.
You can find bank, ATM and exchange bureau in the King Fahd Airport.
There is also a self-service restaurant as well as a great number of cafes and buffets selling snacks and drinks. There is no free Wi-Fi service throughout the airport but there are internet access tables at different points.
As well as duty free stores, shops where you can buy souvenirs, clothes and books offer service for passengers. For the smokers, there is a private indoor room within the airport.
There is a large mosque on the roof of the parking lot belonging to the King Fahd Airport and it is connected to the terminal with private bridges. All of these bridges are air-conditioned.
If you do not want to give up on your comfort, you can wait your flight in the VIP lounge at the outgoing passenger terminal. On the other hand, seminar and meeting halls are not available at the airport.
Transportation to Davao City Center from Airport
Francisco Bangoy Intl. Airport
At Francisco Bangoy Airport, taxis are extensively used by the passengers to go to the city center. Those who want to use the public transportation vehicles can prefer the sympathetic Jeepney minibuses, which are specific to the city with stops outside the airport. Car rental companies at the airport, which are open for 24 hours, help those who would like to go to the city with a private car.
Taxi
Picking up passengers from the airport all day and helping them arrive at the city center comfortably, taxis are driven by educated and honest drivers. The drivers are not open to bargaining on the fare tariff, but they answer your question honestly when you ask them how much you are going to pay on average for the city center.
Jeepney
You can go to the city center more economically with the Jeepneys, which emerged as a result of the transformation of the old jeeps and the minibuses into public transportation vehicles in Davao. However, you have to come to the main road, which is so close to the airport that you can reach there in 5 minutes by walking, in order to take the Jeepneys.
Car Rental
If you would like to rent a car, you can head for the offices of Avis or Europcar at the airport. You can rent a car of any brand and model you wish from the car rental companies for a certain while, where documentation procedures are significantly practical. You should be careful not to exceed the time limit of delivery when you are renting the car for a long time. You may have to pay an extra amount to the companies, which are sensitive in this matter.
