Chitrakoot Airport is an under-construction domestic airport which will serve the city of Chitrakoot, Uttar Pradesh, India. It is located at Dewangna in Chitrakoot district, Шаблон:Cvt from the city center. The existing airstrip with a runway is currently owned by the Civil Aviation Department of the Government of Uttar Pradesh.[1] In January 2019, the State Government decided to expand the airstrip and construct an airport terminal by acquiring additional land from the forest department.[2] [3] The airport has a pre-fabricated passenger terminal covering 525 square meters and can accommodate 20 arriving and 20 departing passengers.[4][5][1] In October 2020, Gurugram-based Aviation Connectivity and Infrastructure Developers Pvt Ltd won the rights to operate flights from the airport to Kanpur, Allahabad and Varanasi, under the government's UDAN Regional Connectivity Scheme.[6] Currently, the airport is not operational, and the terminal is being handled only for private operations. To make it a full-fledged commercial airport, it is undergoing expansion, which includes a new 2,500-metre runway, suitable for handling Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 type aircraft, an apron, and a new passenger terminal. Before the completion of the expansion project, the existing terminal is announced to restart operations, and for that, is expected to get the license within 4-5 months from now, as of February 2023. The expansion project is expected to be completed by 2024.[7]
