About Bhagatanwala Airport
Bhagatanwala Airport is a small airport serving Sargodha and nearby communities in Punjab, Pakistan. It carries the IATA code BHW and the ICAO code OPBG, and it forms part of the wider Sargodha airfield complex in central Punjab.
Located approximately 28 km east of central Sargodha, the airport sits in a rural part of Sargodha District. Its history is tied to the regional airfield network; during the 1965 Indo-Pakistani conflict the Bhagatanwala airstrip was reportedly mistaken for the main Sargodha airbase and bombings fell on dummy aircraft positioned there. Today the field is commonly referred to as Sargodha Domestic Airport and operates occasional domestic flights.
The airfield has two runways, 07/25 and 16/34, and limited passenger infrastructure typical of a small domestic airport. Its services and facilities are modest compared with Pakistan's major international gateways.
Road connections link the airport to Sargodha and surrounding towns, with onward travel generally made by taxi, private transfer or rental car. It functions as a convenient point of access for the Sargodha area and parts of central Punjab.
