Remote desert gateway serving southern Yemen's Beihan region.

Location
Beihan, Yemen
Beihan Airport (IATA: BHN, ICAO: OYBN) is a small regional airport located in Beihan, a town in the Shabwah Governorate of Yemen. The facility serves as a local air access point in an area characterized by desert terrain and limited infrastructure. Due to Yemen's ongoing civil conflict, which intensified after 2015, regular commercial operations at Beihan Airport have been severely disrupted or suspended. The airport's operational status has been affected by the broader collapse of Yemen's aviation sector during the conflict. Detailed information about the airport's facilities, history, and current operations is scarce, reflecting the remote and underserved nature of the Beihan region.
