Streamlined Landing Operations at King Abdulaziz International Airport (IATA: JED, ICAO: OEJN) through Just Aviation Support

To obtain a landing permit at King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED), the following documents are required: General Declaration (complete crew and passenger details), Receiving Party Details (information about the local receiving party), Airworthiness Review Document (proof of the aircraft’s airworthiness), Certificate of Registration (official registration of the aircraft), Certificate of Insurance (valid insurance coverage for the aircraft), Noise Certification (compliance with noise regulations), Air Operator Certificate (AOC) for commercial operators, Flight Plan (detailed flight schedule and routing information), Crew Details (including passport copies), Passenger Manifest (for passenger flights), Cargo Manifest & Airway Bill (for cargo flights, including consignee and consignor details). Applications for landing permits should be submitted at least 24 hours before the intended arrival. However, it is recommended to apply 72 hours in advance to account for any additional document requests or unforeseen delays.

While it is not mandatory to process PPR (Prior Permission Required) documents or send applications for slots in the Kingdom, obtaining a landing permit and an airport parking slot is mandatory. For fuel stops, only a complete flight schedule, entry/exit routing, and crew details are required. For passenger and cargo flights, specific requirements include passenger passport copies, local receiving party contact details, and detailed cargo information. Although slot applications are not mandatory, coordination with the airport’s slot management is crucial for smooth operations. Operators should be aware of peak times, especially during the Hajj and Umrah seasons, which may affect slot availability and airport congestion.
