It sits at roughly 4,700 feet in the Sulaiman Range and has a single runway with basic terminal facilities. The airport provides essential air links for the district, though scheduled service is limited and often subject to change.

💡 Local Tip
Confirm your flight by phone before leaving for the airport, and ask what time the terminal actually opens; it may open only a few hours before departure rather than staying open all day.
🚖 Getting There

The airport is a short drive from central Zhob, and taxis or private cars are the usual way to get there. There is no regular airport bus or ride-hailing coverage, so arrange a pickup through your hotel or a local driver in advance.
