Domestic Airport in Bangladesh. Located at Rajshahi Division. Small space but not crowded. Security systems is good.

Very cosy and neat local airport. Service is good. Security is tight but not over enthusiastic. Only one snack shop but you should try the coffee. Have prospect to become an international airport especially to connect with India and middle-east. Update on March '23: A lengthy facelift is on the way for the last couple of months that may take another few more months to finish but possibly will not do much practically as the square feet are merely change...the risk now a day is the lack of proper security check which may pose a potential threat as Rajshahi is a potential entry point of illegal things from our neighbouring country...

I recently traveled from Dhaka to Shah Makhdum Airport in Rajshahi, and I found the airport to be a convenient and hassle-free option for reaching my destination. The airport is small and easy to navigate, with clear signage and helpful staff available throughout the terminal. The airport's facilities are basic but functional, with a few shops and cafes available for passengers. While there are not many amenities, the airport provides everything necessary for a comfortable travel experience. The flight itself was smooth and on-time, and the arrival process was similarly efficient. The airport is located close to Rajshahi city center, which made it easy to travel to my final destination. Overall, I would recommend Shah Makhdum Airport for anyone traveling to Rajshahi. While it may not have all the amenities of larger airports, it is a convenient and hassle-free option for those flying into or out of the region.

Small airport but very important for the district local people who are used to travel frequently..

Very small airport with poor customer facilities. A local airport. Only domestic flights are operating. But overall a bit clean

Calm and quite small airport.

Shah Makhdum Airport in Rajshahi, it's a domestic airport in Bangladesh. all facilities are available there.

I recently had the pleasure of traveling through this airport, and I must say that my experience was nothing short of exceptional. Everything was seamless and efficient from the moment I stepped inside the airport to the moment I boarded my flight. I hope the authority will take steps to make some updates and expand for more new routes!

Shah Makhdum Airport is located at Rajshahi. It's a very small domestic airport, and can accommodate very few flights at a time. Though small, their service is quite good and the airport staffs are very cooperative. Apart from my experience, I went to bring my brother from the airport who is coming from the UK. However, there are drivers (of CNG, Auto-rickshaw, private Cars etc.) who wait in front of the reception gate; they are pretty disturbing. The visitor might get into scam as they charge very high rate of fares from the visitors, especially from the foreigners. So, be careful on this and if possible, if you are travelling for the first time, do contact your hotel for airport pickup.

A small domestic airport in Rajshahi city north west in Bangladesh. Not so busy but important in the northern west area. Biman Bangladesh Airlines, US Bangla Airlines operates now.

Very little Airport building. Only 6 to 7 flights landed here every day. Runway is small and you might face hard break during landing. No lounge facilities here. Rajshahi city is about 12 km from the airport. You will find CNG Auto 🛺 and other vehicle from the airport.

It's a very old airport, so most things are outdated. Security is very bad. I hope the city mayor fixes it soon.

Rajshahi Airport is very small but their security system is very good. The staffs are very cooperative. Thry are dedicated to their services. The environment is good and neat and vlean. Speially I enjoyed the way to go to the airport. Both sides of the roads are covered by the trees which I enjoyed most!

Shah Makhdum Airport is domestic airport in Rajshahi. Passenger seating, security check and boarding service are quite good as a domestic airport. It's 12km away from Rajshahi City. In car/cng it will take 30min (due to under construction of road) to reach the airport. US-bangla, Novo Air, & Biman are operating their flight in morning and afternoon.

Domestic airport at Rajshahi. It's compact and simple and only smaller aircrafts can land, however there is no mayhem and craziness like there is at Dhaka airport.

I reached just 5 mints before my flight but they allow me to board my flight, thanks them. I travel from this flight frequently, it is a small airport but very important for its location. I stay in Naogaon, it's just 1hr from airport, so i need 2 hr to travel for Dhaka but if I take car then journey will be minimum 5-6 hr.

Good but a small airport for which hard break is required while landing. Hope to see the expansion of this airport very soon. Nice and clean city Rajshahi, so want to see all facilities should be available here.
