Abha International Airport (Arabic: مطار أبها الدولي, IATA: AHB[3], ICAO: OEAB) is an airport in Abha, the capital of 'Asir Province in Saudi Arabia.
The airport has services to several domestic airports within the Kingdom. It also offers international flights to Aden and Sanaa in Yemen, Cairo in Egypt, Doha in Qatar, and nonstop flights to Dubai and Sharjah in the UAE.
The site was a new construction area between the cities of Khamis Mushait and Abha, and served both equally. Construction of the airport started in mid-1975 by Laing Wimpey Alireza. Earlier, domestic flights had been handled at the military airport near Khamis Mushait. The airport became operational in 1977.[4] The construction was carried out by Bin Trif Airport ltd.[citation needed]
