Jaisalmer Airport is a domestic airport serving Jaisalmer, Rajasthan, India. It is located 12.6km (07.8miles) from the city centre.[4] The airport operates as a civil enclave on an Indian Air Force base.
The airport has a single runway of 9000feet in length and 150feet in width. Carriers that have previously flown to/from the airport include Vayudoot and Kingfisher Airlines.[5] In 2015, it was not used for civil flights, and was closed[6] until services resumed under the UDAN scheme in 2017.
The Airports Authority of India has constructed a new passenger terminal at the southern end of the airfield. Construction of the ₹ 80 crore terminal was completed in March 2013.[7] The civil enclave is spread over 65 acres,[7] and consists of the terminal and an apron for parking three Airbus A321 aircraft.[8]
