Surkhet Airport (IATA: SKH, ICAO: VNSK), also known as Birendranagar Airport is a domestic airport located in Birendranagar serving Surkhet District, a district in Karnali Province in Nepal. The Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal considers it an important hub for cargo transport into remote Western areas of Nepal,[3] however this role is declining due to increasing road connectivity.[4] Buddha Air has started daily flights to and from Kathmandu since 22 December, 2022 using its ATR-72 aircraft.[5][6]
