Getting to and from the city
Metro: Riyadh Metro Line 4 (Yellow) runs from the airport stations (Airport T1-2, Airport T3-4 and Airport T5) to KAFD, where you change for the rest of the network. A 2-hour ticket costs from SAR 4 (≈ $1.07). It is the cheapest option if you travel light.
Uber / Careem: use the marked pickup zones. The ride to Olaya or KAFD takes about 35–50 minutes and typically costs SAR 70–130 (≈ $19–35), depending on car type, time and surge pricing.
Airport taxi: official taxis wait at the rank outside arrivals. Confirm the fare before you set off.
Pre-booked driver: a fixed price agreed in advance, with a driver waiting in arrivals. Easiest after a long-haul or late-night flight.
