About King Fahd International Airport

King Fahd International Airport lies in the temperate mid-latitudes at 26.47° N, 49.80° E, on Asia/Riyadh time (UTC+3).

King Fahd International Airport has 2 runways. The longest, 16L/34R, measures 13,124 ft by 197 ft, which puts the field in the full-length intercontinental category: a fully loaded Boeing 777 or Airbus A350 can depart for the far side of the world. The surface is asphalt. Both are lit for night operations.

Runway 16L/34R is aligned roughly south/north, which is the clearest hint you get about the prevailing wind here: runways are built to face the wind that blows most often, because aircraft take off and land into it. Every runway here shares that south/north alignment, so a strong crosswind means a crosswind landing rather than a switch to another strip.
