I heard that the international and domestic terminals are separated by some 20km.

Somebody tell me that this isn't true.

The two terminals are for
1. Domestic and Saudi Arabian Airlines International flights
2. All other airlines

They are not so far apart but not walking distance !

Do you mean to say that if you travel on Saudi Arabian Airlines then you don't have to leave the airport to catch a domestic flight but that you do if you use a foreign airline?

You don't really leave the airport so much as just switch terminals, but it is like switching airports. Maybe a 10-15 minute ride between the two.
