Airport Overview
Khujand International Airport (KIA) is serving Khujand, the second-largest city in Tajikistan. Khujand was formerly known as Leninabad (during the Soviet era); hence the IATA code LBD. It is located out of the city, in the nearby town of Chkalovsk.
Serving the northern Sugd province with around 2.7 million population, KIA is Tajikistan’s second busiest airport. Most flights are to various cities in Russia provided by Russian airline companies. The only domestic ones are daily flights to Dushanbe on Tajik Air and SomonAir.
The runway dimensions are 3,185m by 50m, with an asphalt surface in good condition and with runway lighting.
