Khuzdar Airport (IATA: KDD, ICAO: OPKH) (Urdu: خضدار ہوائی اڈا) is situated 5 km away from the city centre of Khuzdar, Balochistan, Pakistan. Currently, the airport operates without any scheduled flights, resulting in financial losses due to its operational costs.[1][2]
In April 2025, the Ministry of Defence informed the National Assembly that 10 airports across Pakistan were non-operational, including some that had been closed for over a decade. Khuzdar Airport, mentioned in that list, was stated to have been non-operational since 2002.[3]
