El Minya Airport is a small airport serving El Minya, the capital of Minya Governorate in Middle Egypt. It functions as a local gateway to the city and the surrounding region, handling a limited number of domestic services and providing an alternative to larger airports in Cairo and Assiut.
Located about 3 km from central El Minya, the airport is easy to reach by taxi or private transport. Its compact single-terminal layout keeps arrival and departure procedures relatively simple, while the site also shares facilities with the El Minya Air Base operated by the Egyptian Air Force.
The airport sits along the Nile Valley and provides practical access to Middle Egypt destinations such as Beni Hassan, Tuna el-Gebel, Tell el-Amarna and Mallawi, as well as onward travel toward Cairo or Aswan by road or rail.
