Sardar Vallabh Patel International Airport guide

Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport serves Ahmedabad and the state of Gujarat. It sits on the northern edge of the city, on the road toward Gandhinagar, and is the busiest airport in Gujarat. The Airports Authority of India owns it, and Adani's Ahmedabad International Airport Limited runs it under a concession signed in February 2020.

The airport recorded 13.8 million passengers and 103,475 aircraft movements in the year to March 2026. Domestic routes carry most of that traffic. Air India and IndiGo both keep a strong presence, and IndiGo operates a base here. International services link Ahmedabad with the Gulf, Southeast Asia and London.

The airport was renamed after Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, India's first deputy prime minister and a leader from Gujarat. Its single runway, 05/23, is 3,505 m long, and most operations use runway 23. Scheduled international flights began in 1991, and the airport was formally classed as international in 2000.
