Project Highlights
The King Khaled International Airport (KKIA) has a Royal Terminal Apron located on the South side of the airport between Taxiway P & T. The main objective of the Apron is to provide service to the Royal Terminal Building. However, due to the additional apron areas required for the G20 event celebrated in November 2021, the airport authority requested the construction of two (2) new apron extensions, one between Taxiways T and Royal 1 and the second between Taxiways P and Royal 2.
