}}Sialkot International Airport {{airport codes|SKT|OPST}} is situated 14 km (8.7 mi) west of Sialkot in the Sialkot District of Pakistan. It has the distinction of being the first privately owned public airport in Pakistan. Before the completion of the new green field Islamabad International Airport, it also had the longest runway in Pakistan.[1]

Approximately 1,000,000 travellers from Sialkot and adjacent areas are expected to benefit from this international airport each year.

Structure

Sialkot is a major export hub of Pakistan. The airport is being upgraded to make it compatible to carry the load of ten Boeing 747s or A340s. The airport authority is currently working with a private company to develop the airport to meet international standards. The airport has developed a new runway so heavier aircraft can land. There is a new terminal currently being built to deal with increase in passengers as well as cargo imports and exports.
