History

The airport was opened in 1974 to serve Al-Jouf Province in northern Saudi Arabia, and for several decades it operated as a domestic airport. In 2018, it was designated as an international airport, allowing it to handle international flights in addition to domestic services.

A new passenger terminal was constructed as part of aviation infrastructure development in Saudi Arabia to replace the existing facilities. The terminal was inaugurated on 25 February 2026, after which all operations were transferred to the new facility.

The redevelopment increased the airport’s annual passenger capacity to approximately 1.6 million, compared with about 175,000 previously.
