The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) said Wednesday that it will approve the designation of Al-Hasa and Najran airports as international airports. CAAs PR director and spokesman told Arab News that Prince Fahd bin Abdullah, president of CAA, welcomed the move. He said that Arab airline carriers will be allowed to operate one flight daily from Al-Hasa airport to Sharjah. Flights will begin operation in early November. Several other airline requests to operate from Al-Hasa are also under consideration. This brings the number of domestic airports being utilized for international flights to eight. Last year, 1.1 million international passengers traveled through domestic airports.
