Dammam Quick Turn-Around
 
I was wondering if anyone has done a quick turn-around at Dammam (Saudi Arabia) airport and would be able to advise. I need to take a DXB-DMM flight to complete an itinerary (following my long stopover in Dubai). My flight arrives at 22:05.

But, I would like to spend as little time as possible at DMM and come back home to DXB on the same aircraft which departs at 23.15. Is it doable? And is it possible to be in transit at DMM although I do have a Saudi visa, if need be.

If that flight is impossible, then the next one departs six and a half hours later at 04.30. Again, would it be possible to remain in transit or would I need to go through immigration at DMM?

Would be grateful for any advice. Thanks.

Your visa will need to be a transit visa. Is this a mileage run? Would not DXB-DOH/BAH/MCT/KWI be better?

Not a mileage run per se. Had an amazing rate for DMM-BKK-DMM in F with DXB stops in both directions. I just want to complete the journey rather than throwing away the miles.

Thanks for the info on the transit visa. I guess I'll just need to clear immigration and take the later flight.
