Pakistan’s New Gwadar International Airport has officially commenced operations with the landing of its first commercial flight. As a key project under CPEC, the airport is expected to enhance trade, connectivity, and economic growth in the region.
Pakistan’s New Gwadar International Airport is now operational, with a Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) flight from Karachi marking its first commercial landing. The flight, carrying 46 passengers, was welcomed by Defence and Aviation Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif, along with Balochistan’s Governor and Chief Minister.
Spanning 4,300 acres, it is Pakistan’s largest airport by area and only the second in the country capable of handling Airbus A380 aircraft. Developed under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), the project is expected to strengthen trade and connectivity between Pakistan and China.
During the inauguration, Khawaja Muhammad Asif highlighted the airport’s role in boosting economic growth, expanding regional tourism, and integrating Pakistan into global trade networks. The opening of Gwadar’s new airport marks a major step towards the city’s transformation into a key commercial hub.
