Regional gateway serving Lorestan Province in western Iran.

Location
Khorramabad, Iran
Khorramabad Airport (IATA: KHD, ICAO: OICK) is a domestic airport serving the city of Khorramabad, the capital of Lorestan Province in western Iran.

The airport handles a modest volume of regional traffic and is served by Iranian domestic carriers operating scheduled services. It plays a meaningful role for residents and travelers given Lorestan's relative geographic isolation from the country's major urban centers.
