King Saud Bin Abdulaziz (Al Baha) Airport

King Saud Bin Abdulaziz Airport, designated by IATA code ABT and ICAO code OEBA, serves the city of Al-Baha in the Asir region of southwestern Saudi Arabia. Situated at a notably high elevation due to the mountainous terrain of the region, the airport connects this highland city to major Saudi hubs. The airport handles domestic traffic primarily, linking Al-Baha residents and visitors to cities such as Riyadh and Jeddah. It plays an important role in supporting the local economy and facilitating access to Al-Baha's cool climate and natural tourism attractions. Al-Baha is known for its mild summers relative to the rest of Saudi Arabia, drawing domestic tourists, and the airport serves as their main air access point. Infrastructure at the airport is modest, reflecting the relatively smaller population and traffic volumes of the region.
