    For a small airport i really liked this one. Located within the air force campus the airport is away from the usual rush which is seen at airports. Daily some 5 flights only operate so no much crowd, the security line, luggage checkin all gets over in 10min. Sufficient seating space for everyone. N its clean.

    Small Airport neatly maintained. Part of military place and limited flight operations. Hope things will improve and good thing is public support which is overwhelming. Most of the time flights are operated with full capacity irrespective of weekday or weekend. Over all it is a good airport

    When i was visited airport first time i was wondered that that place was so futuristic and well adjusted✈️. Inside the airport, that was really really beautiful and clean✈️. I stayed an hour and realized that it was so peaceful place rather planes are passing rapidly✈️. Parking place was also nice or i can say parking place just not for car it was also designed for both car and driver✈️. The best thing of the airport was the huge and giant flag which reflects the shine and that was so patriotic🛬. Just like the first time i was wondered if it would be a good idea to have a selfie with my friend to upload to Facebook so i can make my other friends to feel jealous✈️. When I enter into the plane first time i was shocked that it was too small not like i had seen in movies✈️. The whole thing was i really feeling bad for those people who were not even visited this airport but Mumbai Airport was three levels next compared to this air port and i forget all the things of this airport✈️❄️❄️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

    Quaint little airport. Not so much for facilities or amenities but a great relief for people staying in kanpur or neighbouring areas. Need more direct flights to metro cities other than Delhi

  • 2/5 Pranjal G. 1 year ago on Google
    It was okay. The checks were quick due to less people. There is no conveyor belt for the luggage and also the washrooms are very small and dirty. The management should take proper actions regarding this.

  • 5/5 Sumit B. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been to 10+ airports in India in Metro and Non-Metro cities. This was my first ever visit to Kanpur City and first flight boarding from Kanpur airport. Overwhelmed by the people and the food in the city. Best thing is convenient connectivity to the airport from city by public transport. In just Rs.15/- bus dropped me at the entry gate of Airport, which is nowhere else to be seen in anywhere across India.....either i have to get a cab or premium priced Airport Bus service in all other cities.

    Easily accessible, small airport with basic amenities. Check in counter, security checking and plane boarding areas are at a very short distance from the parking space (hardly 150 to 200 meters). Not much crowded. Checking in and security screening did not take long but it is advisable to keep some extra time in hand as there is only one security screening counter.

    This is the newly developed modern Chakeri airport. It is situated at a distance of around 2 to 3 kilometers from the old airport (which has now been closed). It is beautifully made although a bit small as compared to major airports but larger than the old airport (area of 6,243 sqm (16 times bigger than the old terminal) and is equipped to handle 400 passengers during peak hours, as compared to 50 passengers earlier). The terminal building's façade depicts the iconic JK Temple of Kanpur, while the interiors are themed around local elements like textiles, leather industries, and notable figures. It showcases Kanpur's culture and heritage for visitors. There are eight check-in counters and three conveyor belts (one in the departure hall and two in the arrival hall). Domestic flights arrive and depart from here. Generally, Indigo flights fly from here to cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Chennai etc using Gate 2 for boarding. Parking is available. It has all the modern facilities including washrooms, parking, food and beverage outlets, LED lighting etc. The terminal has 150 car parking spaces and two spaces for bus parking on the city side.

    Very poor amenities, being Kanpur as such a big city, it has to be renovated and constructed on war footing basis.I have given 2 ratings just because it became convenient to board the flights from Kanpur and reduction in travel time. There are so much crowding inside the airport due to space limitations. Last 2 years may be due to COVID-19 no improvement, hope to see the improvements in next one year🙏🙏🙏

    Flights avilable for Delhi, banglore, Mumbai. It's maintained by IAF & Airports Authority of India. New terminal building work in progress. You can fly during day time only, between Sunrise to sunset. Neat & clean Airport. Staff is so cooperative. Wheel chair facility avilable. CISF security is avilable. It's nearby 3.5 KM from Rama devi & HAL.

    The Kanpur Airport, also known as the Chakeri Air Force Station, is an airport that was originally designated for the Indian Air Force. During the seventies the airport became partially public, at which point regular flights to Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Allahabad, and Pune became operational. However, with the CCS International Amausi Airport offering better connectivity, passengers moved away from Kanpur Airport reducing the frequency of such flights.Plans are presently underway for airport expansion, which is scheduled to take place in 2 phases. During the first phase, there will be an expansion of the existing terminal for higher passenger handling capabilities, new car parking facilities will be added, and a visitors lounge will be constructed. The second phase includes a proposal for a new civil air terminal on 50 acres of land adjacent to the current airport boundary.Currently, Air India provides flights to Delhi and Kolkata. Flights to other major cities around the country are expected to commence operations in the near future.single domestic terminal with 2 boarding gates is used to operate domestic flights to and from Kanpur. The total capacity of the terminal is 50 each for arrivals as well as departures. Covering an area of 390 square meters, the terminal provides one check-in and one security counter.Mahanagar Bus Sewa and private operators offer city bus services from the Kanpur Airport. In addition, passengers can avail general taxi and car rental services to reach their desired destinationsTwo X-ray baggage scanning facilities are available at the airport. In addition, general passenger services like free trolleys, wheelchairs, a lost and found baggage counter, and escort assistance to seniors and the physically-challenged are available. Medical facilities can also be acquired if the need arises.Mahanagar Bus Sewa and private operators offer city bus services from the Kanpur Airport. In addition, passengers can avail general taxi and car rental services to reach their desired destinations.Affordable but comfortable hotels near the airport include The Orient and Kanishka. Tourists can also opt to stay at accommodations like the Little Chef, Best Western Hotel Bliss, S B Castle, The Landmark Towers, and Mandakini Palace.Travelers can keep themselves occupied by relaxing at the snack bar while they grab a bite and wait for their flights. The snack bar is located within the airport premises.The Radha Krishna Temple, Ganga Barrage, Bithoor, J K Masjid, Allen Forest Zoo, Nana Rao Park, Harcot Butler Technological Institute, Massacre Ghat, ISCKON Temple, Kanpur Memorial Church, Vaishno Devi Mandir, Habiba Masjid, Sports Village, Gora Cemetery, and Kanpur Sanghralaya are popular tourist destinations. Tourists looking to engage in some outdoor activities should visit Motijheel, try boating at Mahatma Gandhi Park, and golf at the Golf Club.Kanpur chaats like aloo tikki, dahai chaat, and pani puri are extremely popular with tourists. When it comes to shopping in Kanpur, the city is popular for leather goods, handicrafts, garments, jewelry, and fashion accessories.Essentially a public airport, the Kanpur Airport initially served the Indian Air Force exclusively and is hence also known as the Chakeri Air Force Station.It was in the late seventies, that the airport kick-started a few regular flights to important cities like New Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata amongst others. However, due to the airport’s close proximity to the much larger and better connected Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport of Lucknow, the Kanpur airport witnessed a decrease in passenger traffic and thus had to reduce its flight operations.Currently, the airport facilitates daily flights to only one destination, i.e. New Delhi. The airport houses a single terminal complete with one check-in counter, one security counter and two boarding gates. Spanning over an area of 390 square meters, the terminal has a passenger handling capacity of 50, for both arrivals and departures.In anticipation of an increase in passenger traffic,

    This is military airport but for last few years civil flights have been started. Regular flights for Delhi and Mumbai are available. Spice jet and Indigo are operating these flights. The building of the airport is very simple and needs root level renovation and reconstruction.

    A good starter airport which is low volume operation currently but a breather for the kanpur populace. Could have been a very easy 5 star airport for the size if they had picked or continued to review their one and only food vendor. The directions for the airport are clear and the staff at the airport are friendly, very accommodating and patient. Checkin was a breeze and the staff though not very communicative were very accommodating with respect to helping you with the process for especially new fliers. The food corner is something you don’t want to rely upon and is most likely for the uninformed (and here you have been informed). Eat before you come to the airport. Pack food for yourself and family if needed with the city being able to provide food options for all people on earth. As a whole the experience is not bad but the operators will bring it to the level of how well and often they are held accountable. Good luck Kanpur.

    Good initiative for giving a commercial airport to kanpur, but i needs more management. There is a single checkout counter for indigo which usually results in long queues. Also for arrivals , there is no conveyor belt system , all the luggage is manually brought in and the people need to claim the called bags. Needs a lot of improvement

    It's little small for commercial flight. But very good supporting staff. Easy - bag checkin, carry bag scanning, security check all are in close proximity so very helpful for Bignner and on top of staff is very well mannered and doing there task perfectly. Parking and Enterance is designed in such a way to reduce the blocking. I feel they should take little more care of Lauggage as its totally manual.

    The newly opened Kanpur Airport is a breath of fresh air for travelers, with a promising start and exciting prospects on the horizon. The architecture of the airport is a blend of modern design and a nod to Kanpur's rich history, making it a truly unique and aesthetically pleasing space. The incorporation of details that carry the legacy of old Kanpur is a commendable touch, adding a sense of cultural depth to the airport. Currently, the airport offers flights to major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore, which is a significant leap forward for Kanpur's connectivity. It's a promising start that bodes well for the region's growth and development as a travel hub. For those looking to grab a bite before their flight, there are food options available. Pandit's, a renowned name in the city's culinary scene, offers a taste of local flavors, allowing travelers to savor the essence of Kanpur. Additionally, the presence of a café provides a variety of options for a quick meal or a relaxing coffee break. While the airport is off to a great start, it's worth noting that certain amenities and services are yet to open. This leaves room for anticipation, as the airport has the potential to become a more comprehensive travel facility, offering a wider range of services and conveniences. In conclusion, the newly opened Kanpur Airport is a significant milestone in the city's development, providing essential air connectivity to major Indian cities. The airport's architectural and cultural elements, along with food options like Pandit's, make it an intriguing and inviting space. With future expansions and the opening of additional facilities, Kanpur Airport is poised to become a key player in the region's transportation and travel landscape. It's an exciting time for Kanpur and its travelers.

    I feel proud to post this review. This is regarding my first visit to my city kanpur airport. Still the place is under construction but I've found the place neat and clean. We can reach the place through ramadevi route. the selection of the airport place is also good as I don't see any traffic in that area. Parking is also available @35 per hour. Ive not found any food court or bakers shop outside the airport so do keep ur necessary eatables from ramadevi market if needed. Happy Journey ❣️

    Most important thing to remember is that Kanpur is connected to metro cities by air. It's a very small airport. Came from Mumbai to Kanpur by Indigo flight. Experienced arrival segment of the airport. Arrivals section is a makeshift temporary structure of tent. Luggage is manually delivered. Toilets are small. New airport building is under construction.

  • 1/5 Alok T. 1 year ago on Google
    Awful. Disorganised, chaotic, not served by even any half-decent public transportation. There aren't enough seats for the number of passengers the airport is meant to serve. The only positive thing is that clean, cold drinking water is available. The staff on duty do not make any attempt to maintain any orderliness and their job is made harder by the insufficient space for passengers. The passengers are even more unruly than other small airports in Northern India, which is saying something. Avoid this place unless it's absolutely necessary. Unfortunately, the railway stations aren't very good either, and buses are significantly worse. It seems to me that travelers to and from Kanpur simply have to grit their teeth and tolerate these indignities and extreme discomfort. If a person has a disability and isn't very wealthy, they simply have no practical options.

  • 4/5 Ashish K. 4 months ago on Google
    Kanpur Airport has had a massive upgrade and it has come a long way in the last 5 years, and looks very nice now. I hope this airport keeps expanding in future because I definitely see enough traffic to/from Kanpur. The staff at Kanpur Airport is very friendly, including the security staff. The only problem I face here is the lack of WiFi because I don't have an Indian phone number, and I solely rely on WiFi for communication. Hopefully they fix it in future.

    This is one of the best airports that i have been to in India. I had the fastest check out ever on this airport. The plane lands, you get off the plane and get to the taxi within 2 mins. No hassle of bus and long corridors. Even if you had check in luggage, it will be put out quickly. You don't need to wait for converter belt delivering it to you.
