Prince Mohammad Bin Abdulaziz International Airport

The Prince Mohammad Bin Abdulaziz International Airport, also known as the Prince Mohammad Airport, is the primary airport in the Medina region. Flights from Al Madinah, as some refer to the city, are available through one of the 15 airlines serving the airport, which include Nas Air, Air Arabia, Turkish Airlines, and Royal Faclon. The airport is less than 10 miles from downtown Medina, and if you want to find big deals on your flight, you can check with Orbitz.com. Orbitz offers a variety of low-cost flights from this airport every day.

On-site or Offsite Parking

The airport announced plans in 2008 to develop new parking garages and spaces on-site. Once the renovations are done, the airport will have more short-term and long-term lots. Depending on where you live, you might find that paying to park your car at a local hotel or business is a better option.

Grab a Taxi

The only way to reach the airport, other than your own car, is by taxi. You can easily find taxis in downtown areas, and some companies take reservations if you want to ensure that you get to the airport on time. Most taxis have a piece of paper on the windshield that tells you the price of the ride.

One Airport Restaurant

The only restaurant at the airport, Ooho, is a fast-food restaurant where you serve yourself. You walk through the restaurant, pick out what you want, and pay when you reach the register. The restaurant also has a few employees who can help you pick and pay for your food.

Far too many people wait until they can find sales on flights, but savvy travelers know they can get the same low prices from Orbitz.com. Once you find the best flights from Al Madinah, you can start thinking about the rest of your vacation.
