The airport located in Kyrgyzstan’s third largest city will cover over 380 hectares, with a two-story passenger terminal covering 10,000 square meters and a capacity to serve more than 350 passengers per hour.

«Since 2021, passenger traffic in Kyrgyzstan has increased by 46 percent, and the number of flights has grown by 31 percent. New aircraft have been acquired, and previously idle regional airports have resumed operations,» the president said.
The existing Jalal-Abad airport was originally opened as an airfield in 1938, with the addition of a terminal building and asphalt runway in 1972. While it is expected to serve over 80,000 passengers this year, the existing infrastructure can no longer keep up with the growing passenger demand.
