About This Airport

Established in 1978 and later upgraded to international status, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz International Airport (GIZ) serves Jizan on Saudi Arabia's southern Red Sea coast. It offers cargo facilities alongside passenger links to Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam flown by Saudia and flynas, with a new terminal sized for 2.4 million passengers a year and scalable freight capacity. The airport sits beside Jazan Economic City, a multi-billion-dollar hub for shipping, energy, processing and manufacturing. Most of the area's tonnage, however, moves through nearby Port Jizan, the kingdom's third-largest Red Sea port at around 5 million tonnes a year. For forwarders, GIZ handles regional and time-sensitive air consignments while heavy intercontinental freight is consolidated via Jeddah.
