Does anyone know how much the car parking is at the new airport.
if i don't bring much luggage, i can actually walk to the bus stop where buses 109 and 747 pass by from my house. the thing is, i think they leave only at hourly intervals for now like all 3-digit bus route numbers. i hope they increase the frequency once the airport opens and there is a demand. published travel time from al ghanim bus station for 109 is 27 minutes and the 747 is 23 minutes, but it's probably more.
Is the arrival terminal is same after the 30th april 2014?
Please read again, there will be 2 bus routes serving Hamad Airport. Bus No 109 & 747.
