Batken

Batken Airport opened in the Soviet era in the 1950s and today operates a single small terminal serving this remote southwestern Kyrgyzstan gateway; it’s a compact regional field that handles mostly domestic and occasional regional flights rather than international hubs. Located a short drive from Batken city center, the airport is reachable by taxi, shared minibus and local road links, with overland connections commonly used to reach Osh and other regional centers. Travelers find Batken generally affordable—flight options are limited but ticket and airport costs tend to be low—and the airport is not a base for major carriers, hosting small national and regional operators instead.
