Background

The airport is located at Neom Bay, the first area to be constructed in the framework of the project.[2] It is one of the four-airport network that is projected in the city, one of which is to be international.[3] The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has classified the airport as a commercial hub.[4] The length of the airport's runway is 3,757 metres (12,323 ft).[4] The airport has a logistic location as it links three countries: Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Egypt. Neom Airport is the first airport in the region to use the 5G wireless network service.[5] It is 48 km (30 mi) east from the nearest airport, Sharm El Sheikh International Airport across the Red Sea in Egypt.[6]
