Jeddah Layover

I haven't found anything on this specific situation: I will have a layover of about 9 hours in Jeddah, and want to leave the airport. The flights in and out are on a single PNR on Saudia, using Delta miles. I know on a paid Saudia ticket I would automatically get a transit visa for up to 96 hours, but I don't see anything about flights booked through a partner at the website for Saudia. The government website talks about the e-visa good for a year, which I know I can get, but I'd rather avoid that cost if possible for such a brief stay. Do I need the e-visa or can a transit visa be obtained somehow, either in advance or at the airport. Thanks! (U.S. passport)
