Description

King Fahd International Airport (KFIA) ( مطار الملك فهد الدولي ) ( IATA :DMM, ICAO :OEDF), is the world's largest airport in terms of land area(around 780 km2).It is located 20 kilometers (12 miles) northwest of Dammam city.

Design started in 1976 and works began in 1983.

The airport's basic infrastructure was achieved by the end of 1990, and the airport was first used by Allied forces engaged in the first Gulf War in early 1991 as a military airbase .

King Fahd International Airport was finally opened to commercial traffic on 28 November 1999 and all airlines transferred their operations from Dharan International Airport.

Dammam is the fith largest city in Saudi Arabia. Its airport serves actually the entire Eastern Region of Saudi Arabia and in particular, Dammam Metropolitan Area, which is the third largest metropolitan area
in Saudi Arabia, with more than 4.000.000 people.
In 2013, KFIA hosted about 7.000.000 passengers, and handled 120.000 tons of cargo freight. It is ranked at the third position for the trafic in Saudi Arabia, after Jeddah and Riyadh and at the 11th position in the persian Gulf. Until today, regarding the trafic, only the north part of the main passenger terminal is on duty.

From the originals plans and its 25 airbridges, only 11 gates were built, among which 7 can be used for international flight arrivals as the 4 others are not connected to passport control and customes. Neitherless, since domestic flights are entirely running from the operating northern section, all eleven boarding bridges can be used for domestic flights as well as the departures of international flights.
Saudi Aramco(Saudi American Oil Company), which is one of the world largest oil companies, has a dedicated area of 250km2 inside the airport area, which is used for oil drilling and transportation facilities, including a separated passenger terminal, served by the east runway.

As many airport in the saudi arabian Kingdom, KFIA has a Mosque, that can host 2000 whorsipers.
There is also a Royal Terminal, for the Saudi Royal Family, government members and official guests, equiped with four airbridges, but it is rarely used by the Saudi Royal family that usually prefer a similar facility at King Abdulaziz Airbase.

I bought this product when it first came out and I wasn't impressed at all and I uninstalled it and forgot about it. I recently bought the aerosoft Airbus series and wanted to fly around the Middle East and finding out that there is an update for Dammam I thought why not give it another go. Installed the scenery and the update and I personally think the performance has become so much better. The scenery is nicely made which is why i gave it a four star, the only reason it's not five star is whilst the performance has improved its not at the same level as a flytampa scenery or aerosoft. If they could improve the performance it would definitely be a five star in my opinion.

When I first bought this airport, I was happy with a first version, better than nothing kinda thing. the lighting was nice and it gave it a more realistic feeling. Then came some darned update and since then it never worked for me. I emailed the support and hand to wait to the point that I almost forgot that I send them something. when they did finally respond, it was less than helpful, so the problem remained and have not heard from them since. But I am keeping my fingers crossed. :) I wish i had not deleted the original download, then at least I would have the pre-updated version. so to the developer, if you ever read this, please republish the original. Thank you.

This used to be a good airport. They recently issued and update and it wont load and the installer is in Spanish. I have contacted support but no one answered. so buyer beware.
