Traffic growth at King Abdulaziz International Airport

Cargo traffic at KAIA is expected to grow significantly in the coming years, driven by the growth of the Saudi Arabian economy and the expansion of KAIA’s air cargo network. In order to accommodate this growth, KAIA is currently undergoing a major expansion of its cargo facilities. The expansion, which is due to be completed in 2025, will increase KAIA’s cargo capacity to 1 million tonnes per year.
