Bannu Airport (Template:Comma separated entries) is a domestic airport located 6 nm (11 km) west of the city center of Bannu, in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan.[1]

It was constructed to provide services to Bannu's population and neighbouring communities. It is not as large as other public sector airports of Pakistan.

The airport is not currently in operation except for emergency diversions. According to employees, no flights have taken here since about 2001.[2]

History

The Central Development Working Party (CDWP) approved to release 715 million PKR for the upgradation of the airport in 2018.[3] There has been no follow up on this project.

In 2024 and 2025, Bannu Airport was mentioned in media reports citing various inactive airports across the country that were a burden on the exchequer.[4][5]
