nightstop in JED
Hi everybody
Thought the crew entry permit delivred at the JED airport is valid into Jeddah only and for 72 hours only.
Meanwhile you can go to taif and generally if you are caught in any check-point the police officials are cool but it is not the general rule,one time (going to mecca and it is not allowed for non muslims)we were just kindly invited to return back to jed.
Just be advised during the return phase of hadj campaign, getting through the airport to acces your acft is truly a nightmare as there is no track dedicated to flightcrew, and you have to make your way in an overcrowded terminal, jumping over thousands pieces of bagage.
Hope this helps.
