I saw this published report in the Gulf News, and wondered if the king would be going to the Cleveland Clinic?

Riyadh: Saudi King Abdullah is to receive treatment in the United States for a painful herniated disc, with ailing Crown Prince Sultan Bin Abdul Aziz to take over the reins in his absence, an official said on Sunday.

Abdullah, 86, will travel to the US on Monday for treatment for the herniated disc and "blood accumulation" around the spine, the official told AFP.

Anyone know what airport they typically depart from in Saudi Arabia?

Wondering if it will post to FlightAware.

I was listening to CNN on the XM while driving and this story was on it.  I would imagine it would be Cleveland--that's where the Royal Family typically goes, isn't it?  Might they go elsewhere also and we just don't realize it because we're usually focused on CLE?

I believe he's at the Mayo Clinic in MN as the 747SP has been reported in KRST

Yeah, currently it's on its way to JFK then back to Saudi.  Also looks like there's one inbound from Saudi to JFK.
