What is the longest duration allowed for parking at King Fahd International Airport, and how much is the daily fee? Has anyone parked their vehicle here for a period of 45 days?

I wouldn't even consider parking there beyond 7 days. I got caught out with the fee change in the closest car park about 2 years ago.
Instead of the expected 500 SAR it ended up costing me close on 2000 SAR as they had raised the long term from 1 SAR per hour to 3 SAR.
Now I just take a driver at a cost of 150 SAR each way.

The long stay is not expensive. 28 SAR per day long stay for a typical 3-4 week vacation. I will stick with the reliable driver that I have been used ever since the price went up. Sad to see the "corporate greed" creeping in across kingdom these days. Used to be 2 SAR per hour, dropping to 1 SAR after 3 days.

Not sure why anyone would want to park LT at DMM? There are ample reliable and economically drivers in KSA with large SUVs.
