Batken International Airport (Kyrgyz: Баткен эл аралык аэропорту, Russian: Баткенский международный аэропорт) (IATA: none (БАТ), ICAO: UAFB) is an international airport serving Batken, the capital of Batken Province (oblast) of Kyrgyzstan. The Russian IATA code for Batken Airport is БАТ.[2]

Batken International Airport commenced its operations in 1958 as a basic landing strip. In 1984, significant development took place, resulting in the construction of the present-day runway and terminal facilities. The airport is classified as a Class 3C airport, with its runway featuring a weight limit of 22 tonnes. Batken International Airport lacks instrument landing facilities, which means it can only operate during daylight hours.

Batken Airport was given international status on April 19, 2014. Customs and border control checks will be installed and the current runway will be extended by 400 meters.[3] There are occasional flights to Osh, Jalal-Abad and even to nearby Isfana.
