Remote gateway serving Balochistan's Zhob district in Pakistan.

Location
Zhob, Pakistan
Zhob Airport, designated with IATA code PZH and ICAO code OPZB, is a small domestic airport serving the town of Zhob, historically known as Fort Sandeman, in Balochistan province, Pakistan. The airport provides essential air connectivity to a remote and mountainous region that has limited road infrastructure. The airport is operated under the authority of the Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (PCAA) and handles limited scheduled domestic flights. It serves a strategic role in connecting the area with major Pakistani cities, particularly Karachi and Islamabad. Given its location in a tribal belt region of Balochistan, the airport has historically also served military and government purposes alongside civilian operations. Passenger volumes remain modest due to the small population catchment area.
Terminals
The airport has a single small terminal building with basic passenger handling facilities suited to low traffic volumes.
Getting to & from
Ground transport to and from Zhob city center is primarily via road, with taxis and private vehicles being the main options.
