The airport is operated by the Airports Authority of India and is connected to several prominent Indian cities. A new airport is also proposed to be built at the state capital Kohima to improve connectivity in Nagaland. The new airport at Kohima is proposed to be built at Chiethu, 25 kilometres from Kohima. In July 2021, the proposed airport received a no-objection certificate from the Ministry of Defence, India.[1] [2]
