Behala Airport (ICAO: VEBA) is located at Behala in the city of Kolkata, India. It is located
approximately 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) from the city centre. It is more commonly called Behala Flying Training Institute or Behala Flying Club. The Ministry of Civil Aviation and the Airports Authority of India have plans to develop it into a full-fledged commercial airport by expanding the runway to 4,500 feet (1.4 km) to ease the pressure on the Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport.[1][2][3][4][5]
