I heard that the international and domestic terminals are separated by some 20km.
Somebody tell me that this isn't true. |

perhaps your're thinking of the old(closed) airport in the city centre, the runway is now used by boy racers. |

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. |
