TUI is the airport code for Turaif Airport, serving the town of Turaif in the far north of Saudi Arabia, close to the border with Jordan and Iraq. Turaif is a desert town in the Northern Borders Province, in a region of open desert, oil and gas infrastructure and the ancient trade and pilgrimage routes that have long crossed this frontier country. It is a modest administrative and industrial centre rather than a tourist destination, one of the northern towns of the kingdom near the great desert that stretches toward the Levant. The wider northern region has archaeological traces of the caravan routes and a landscape of gravel desert and low hills. Turaif is reached by flights into its airport, linking it with the Saudi cities, and by the desert highways. The climate is hot and very dry, with hot summers and mild winters that can be cold at night.
