Whoever intends to perform after completing their work in Jeddah must enter into a state of when parallel to the in the airplane. Therefore, they should prepare by wearing the ihram garments beforehand. Upon reaching the miqat parallel, they should immediately form the intention for ihram. It is not permissible to delay entering into ihram until Jeddah, as that is transgressing the limits set by Allah. One arriving by air or sea must enter ihram when parallel to the miqat or slightly before it.
