'''Irkutsk International Airport ''' ([[Russian language|Russian]]: '''Международный Аэропорт Иркутск''') {{airport codes|IKT|UIII}} is an [[international airport]] on the outskirts of [[Irkutsk]], [[Russia]], at a distance of 60 kilometers (37 miles) from [[Lake Baikal]].

==Operations==
The airport has daily domestic flights to [[Moscow]], Vladivostok, [[Krasnoyarsk]], Novosibirsk, [[Yakutsk]], Saint Petersburg, [[Yekaterinburg]], and Sochi.  It has regional daily flights to [[Ust-Kut]], Bratsk, [[Bodaybo]], Kirensk and other Russian cities.

Due to its proximity to the [[Angara]] Reservoir, the airport is subject to a [[microclimate]] of foggy weather. When the airport is closed due to bad weather conditions, [[Bratsk Airport]], Ulan-Ude Airport, [[Irkutsk Northwest Airport]], and Belaya (air base) serve as diversion airports.

==History==
{{unreferenced section|date=March 2022}}

=== 1920s to 1930s ===
The Irkutsk Airport opened on 24 June 1925.  Six aircraft from [[Moscow]] landed at the airport as part of a flight to [[Beijing]]. Of these six planes, four were domestic and two were foreign. This flight was headed by captain I.P. Shmidt. The event was the beginning of aviation service in [[Siberia]].

On 10–13 August 1928 the first postal/passenger flight on the Irkutsk–[[Bodaybo]] seaplane route arrived.  It was a [[Junkers F 13]] named Mossovet. In August 1932 the air route from Moscow to Vladivostok opened with a stop in Irkutsk. Irkutsk aviators started to fly the Irkutsk to [[Mogocha]] route.

=== 1940s to 1960s ===
In January 1948, daily flights on the Irkutsk–Moscow, Irkutsk–Bodaybo–Yakutsk air routes were started.  On December 30, 1954, Irkutsk Airport was elevated to international status.

On September 15, 1956, the [[Tupolev Tu-104]] first arrived in Irkutsk by tech-flight from Beijing. The Moscow–Irkutsk route initiated that day marked the first Soviet jet-airliner-operated passenger route. The flight was performed by a Moscow crew headed by captain E.P. Barabash.

=== 1970s to 1990s ===
On March 7, 1975, the first [[Tupolev Tu-154]] jets landed in Irkutsk. On April 4, 1975, the first flight to Moscow on Tupolev Tu-154 was performed.

On November 11, 1980, the first [[Il-76]] CCCP-76525 arrived in Irkutsk. The crew consisted of: flight instructor МГА Mr. M. V. Ptitsyn, the commander УТО Mr. V. F. Podshivalov, captain-probationer A.V. Bobylkov and other flying experts. On December 19, 1980, the first flight was performed on the route Irkutsk–[[Polyarny Airport|Polyarnyi]] using the Il-76.  It was headed by air detachment commander Mr. v. I. Sviridov.

On April 1, 1992, according to order No. 238 d.d. 30 March, Irkutsk United Air Group was reorganized. There were Irkutsk Airport State Enterprise (SE "Irkutsk Airport") and Air company Baikal Public Corporation.

On October 28, 1994, certificate No. 045-А-М from the [[Intergovernmental Aviation Committee]] for accordance with certification requirements was given. The airport was accepted as suitable for international flights.

On December 16, 1994, the acting terminal of international flights was put into commission.

=== 2000s ===
On April 12, 2002, the aerodrome operator changed its name to Irkutsk Airport [[Federal State Unitary Enterprise]].{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

On July 14, 2004, the aerodrome received its certificate to accept international flights and landing-minimum 1 category [[ICAO]] 60.{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

On October 14, 2008, the work for lengthening the runway (400 m towards [[Lake Baikal]]) was completed.{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}
