Located at a distance of 12 km from Siliguri, the Bagdogra Airport gets its name from the small town that it is situated in. The airport also serves the important cities of Jalpaiguri and Darjeeling, thanks to its strategic location, which ensures that it falls within a short distance of approximately 50 km from both cities. Operated as a civil enclave, this public airport is shared by the AFS Bagdogra of the Indian Air Force.
The airport was granted the status of a ‘customs port’ in the year 2012, and therefore witnesses some international flight operations. Playing a host to over 1 million passengers annually, the domestic terminal of the airport boast of a passenger holding capacity of 350 for arrivals and 40 for departures. That rapid growth in the passenger traffic of the airport can largely be attributed to the fact that it is one of the few airports which doesn’t charge any tax on Aviation Turbine Fuel.
