Luxury Airport Service, Redefined

As of the mid-February 2026 reshuffle, Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 handle international flights for national carriers (including Saudia and Riyadh Air). Terminals 3 and 4 serve as the integrated Domestic Hub for all domestic routes. Terminal 5 is a standalone facility located 1.5km away, dedicated exclusively to foreign international airlines like Emirates, Lufthansa, and British Airways.

Commercial Fast-Track escorts you through the main terminal buildings (Terminals 1, 2, or 5) using priority diplomatic lines, commercial lounges, and public boarding gates. The VVIP AlTanfeethi service bypasses the main terminals completely. You are processed inside a private luxury terminal facility and transferred across the tarmac to or from the aircraft via a private executive vehicle.

Transferring between the Terminal 1-4 continuous building and the standalone Terminal 5 takes approximately 7 minutes via the 24/7 airport shuttle or private vehicle. However, clearing international security and re-checking luggage can take upwards of 45 minutes. AssistAnt transit services cut this time in half by utilizing airside golf carts and expedited biometric security checkpoints.

Tarmac-to-terminal vehicle transfers are strictly restricted to guests utilizing the AlTanfeethi Private Terminal service or those flying on private aviation charters via the FBO. Passengers on standard commercial tickets—even in First Class—must exit via the jet bridge, where our AssistAnt greeter will meet them immediately to facilitate an expedited golf-cart transfer through the concourse.

No. King Khalid International Airport has fully integrated advanced 3D CT security scanners across its premium and fast-track lanes in 2026. Passengers utilizing our Fast-Track services can leave all electronics and liquids inside their hand luggage, minimizing physical contact and reducing screening time to under 60 seconds.

First-time international visitors arriving on a new tourist or business visa must clear a manual immigration counter once to register their digital biometrics and facial profiles. Your AssistAnt greeter will guide you to a dedicated, accelerated manual lane for this step. On all subsequent entries and exits during the 2026 season, you can fully utilize the 10-second automated Biometric E-Gates.

You do not visit the public baggage claim carousels. After our tarmac vehicle transfers you to the private AlTanfeethi lounge, you will provide your baggage tags to your AssistAnt handler. Our dedicated porters identify, pull, and transport your luggage directly from the aircraft baggage hold to the private terminal's secure inspection area, loading them straight into your vehicle.

Yes. The 2026-renovated AlTanfeethi Terminal features fully equipped, high-tech executive boardroom suites and private Wi-Fi networks ideal for immediate post-flight briefings. For commercial passengers, the flagship Al Fursan lounges in Terminals 2 and 3/4 offer soundproof workstation pods and private meeting spaces.

While RUH is connected to the Riyadh Metro Yellow Line (with Station 20 serving Terminals 1 & 2, Station 19 serving Terminals 3 & 4, and Station 18 serving Terminal 5), our clients generally prefer our private chauffeured fleet. We provide seamless curbside vehicle handovers that bypass the train platforms entirely, ensuring a direct 20-minute private drive to KAFD via Highway 65.

Due to the high volume of diplomatic and corporate travel associated with Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 initiatives, AlTanfeethi private terminal access and tarmac vehicle allocations require security clearance. We strictly require bookings to be finalized at least 48 to 72 hours prior to flight departure or arrival to guarantee tarmac manifest authorization.
