Bisha Airport — Bisha, Saudi Arabia

Bisha Airport serves the city of Bisha in Saudi Arabia's Asir Region, in the country's southwest, at an elevation of 3,887 feet on the edge of the Arabian Peninsula's highland terrain. A single runway supports domestic connections linking Bisha to major Saudi cities such as Riyadh and Jeddah. The Asir Region carries a more mountainous, cooler climate than much of the rest of Saudi Arabia, thanks to its position along the peninsula's southwestern escarpment. Bisha itself sits apart from the province's more mountainous tourist towns, functioning more as an agricultural and administrative center. Air travel remains an important option for the region given the long overland distances between Asir's cities and Saudi Arabia's major metropolitan centers.
