Kogalym Airport (Russian: Аэропорт Когалым) (IATA: KGP, ICAO: USRK) is an airport in Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, Russia located 9 km southeast of Kogalym. It accommodates medium-sized airliners.

History

After being state-owned by the Soviet union, the airport started to operate privately in 1991, and served as home base for the defunct airline Kogalymavia.[1] In 1995, Kogalym Airport obtained its international status and served its first international flight (to Budapest) in 1996. In 1998, it became a member of the Airports Council International Europe.[2]
