Stepanakert Airport

Stepanakert Airport is an airport in the town of Khojaly, 10 kilometers north-east of Stepanakert, the regional capital of the de facto self-proclaimed Republic of Artsakh , de jure inside Azerbaijan. The airport, in the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region, has been under the control of the Republic since 1992. Flights ceased with the escalation of the First Nagorno-Karabakh War in 1990. As the airport lies within the internationally recognized borders of Azerbaijan, and the current government is unrecognized, there are no codes for the airport in the official IATA list.
In 2009, the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic's authorities began the reconstruction of the facilities. Though it was scheduled to launch the first commercial flights on May 9, 2011, NKR officials postponed the new reopening date throughout 2011. In May 2012, the director of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Civil Aviation Administration, Tigran Gabrielyan, announced that the airport would begin operations in mid-2012. However the airport remains closed due to security reasons, as Azerbaijan has threatened to shoot down flights.
