About Airport T1-2
Airport T1-2 is the northern terminus of Line 4 (Yellow) and the last station on it, serving Terminals 1 and 2 of King Khalid International Airport. It lies within the airport grounds at the far northern edge of Riyadh, elevated above street level. The line that ends here began at KAFD and has come up through Ar Rabi, Uthman Bin Affan Road, SABIC, the two Princess Nourah University stations and then the airport terminals one after another. Being the end of the line has a practical advantage for anyone arriving with luggage: every train standing at the platform is going back the way it came, towards the city, so there is no wrong direction to pick and no change of train as far as KAFD, where Line 1 (Blue) and Line 6 (Purple) carry on into the rest of the network. The whole journey costs SAR 4 (about $1.07) on a two-hour Regular class ticket.
It is the end of Line 4, after Airport T3-4.
It is an elevated station and runs to the network hours: 5:30 am to midnight Saturday to Thursday, and from 10:00 am on Friday. The SAR 4 two-hour ticket covers the metro and the buses. Below you will find the station on the map, journey times, interchanges and facilities.
