List of airports in Afghanistan, grouped by type and sorted by location.

For a list sorted by airport name, see Category:Airports in Afghanistan
For a list sorted by ICAO code, see List of airports by ICAO code: OA

Afghanistan has two major air gateways: Kabul International Airport, serving the capital, and Kandahar International Airport, serving the south of the country. The two airports were operated in the past under instrument flight rules with day and night operations. Four major domestic airports with airside pavements provide air connection to the major cities. In addition, 16 regional domestic airports are spread over the country serving the smaller, more remote areas. These airports have mainly gravelled airside facilities and operate under visual flight rules.
