About Zaqatala International Airport
Zaqatala International Airport serves the city of Zaqatala in northwest Azerbaijan and lies at the southern foot of the Main Caucasus range. The airport terminal and runway were reconstructed and reopened in 2008, after which the facility received international status.
The airport is about 8 km from central Zaqatala and operates through a single compact passenger terminal designed for modest passenger volumes. Its infrastructure supports domestic and international operations, arrivals, departures and ground handling within one central building.
Road access links the airport to Zaqatala city centre and the surrounding region, with onward travel by taxi and private transfer. Because scheduled passenger services are limited, travellers usually arrange ground transport in advance when using the airport.
Passenger facilities at the terminal are basic, and the airport functions primarily as a small regional and international aviation gateway for northwest Azerbaijan rather than a large commercial hub.
