Lankaran International Airport LLK / UBBL

Lankaran, Lankaran District · Azerbaijan · CJSC 'Azerbaijan Airlines' (AZAL) — Azerbaijan's state carrier group, which operates Baku Heydar Aliyev International Airport and is the documented operator for sister regional international airports such as Ganja; its operatorship at Lankaran is inferred from that same pattern rather than independently confirmed there. No verifiable named local airport director was located, so none is attributed here (a previously circulated 'Rafail Burcayev' attribution could not be corroborated against any source).

AIP referenceUBBL — Azerbaijan AIP (AZANS eAIP), AD 2.UBBL Lankaran aerodrome section
Operating hoursNot H24. Traffic is seasonal on both scheduled routes: AZAL's own destinations list flags the domestic Baku-Lankaran leg specifically as 'Seasonal' (not year-round), and Utair's international Moscow-Vnukovo service (launched 5 Apr 2025, weekly on Saturdays; still the airport's only listed carrier as of Apr 2026) is framed by trade coverage as tied to Lankaran's summer Caspian-resort season rather than confirmed as genuinely year-round — no winter-months operation of either route was independently verified. Published tower/PPR hours for ad hoc or GA traffic are not publicly listed, so confirm slot availability with AZANS/the airport before non-scheduled movements.
TerminalsSingle small international terminal opened with the 2008 reconstruction (325 ha site); given very low traffic volumes, check-in and security typically clear well inside an hour.

A minor southeastern Azerbaijan gateway (Caspian coastal resort city near the Iran border), rebuilt 2005-2008 at a reported cost of about $51 million; that cost figure and the 325 ha site-area figure are carried forward from a prior verification pass and were not. The only confirmed full-year passenger total remains the 2014 figure of 47,889 (down about 10% on 2013's 53,435) — no newer primary full-year count for Lankaran specifically was located, so treat this as a stale baseline rather than current volume; a widely-circulating '7+ million passengers' 2024 statistic found in aggregator searches belongs to Baku's Heydar Aliyev International Airport, not Lankaran, and should not be attributed here. Service has been thin and volatile: Ural Airlines ended its Moscow/St Petersburg links around April 2023, and current scheduled service as of Apr 2026 is AZAL's seasonal domestic Baku-Lankaran leg plus Utair's international Moscow-Vnukovo rotation (launched 5 Apr 2025, weekly on Saturdays) — Utair does not publish a fixed end date, but given Lankaran's summer-resort character and AZAL's confirmed seasonality on the same market, this route should be treated as likely season-bound rather than confirmed year-round until winter-months operation is independently verified. No airport-specific website or direct phone/email contact could be verified: airport.az (checked directly, including its navigation and footer) is exclusively Baku Heydar Aliyev International Airport's own site and carries no Lankaran page, link, or contact detail, so those fields are left null here rather than publishing a likely-incorrect Baku-derived address.
