About Tokat Airport

Tokat Airport is located in the Merkez district of Tokat province, near Söngüt, approximately 17 kilometres from the city centre. Opened to civil air traffic in 1995 and renewed with its modern airport infrastructure in 2022, the airport is operated by the General Directorate of State Airports Authority (DHMİ). It plays an important role in strengthening air access for Tokat and nearby districts, supporting business travel, tourism, public mobility and regional connectivity.

The airport serves passengers through a single modern terminal building with domestic and international areas, designed for an annual capacity of around 2 million passengers. Its infrastructure includes a 2,700-metre runway, apron areas, check-in counters, baggage systems, security screening points, passenger lounges, parking and ground transport options. Traffic is mainly shaped by domestic flights throughout the year, with demand generally rising during summer, public holidays, university periods and family-visit seasons.

Airlines operating from Tokat Airport include Turkish Airlines, AJet and Pegasus, with the main direct destinations focused on Istanbul Airport, Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen and Izmir. Regular scheduled international flights are limited, while international demand is largely served through Istanbul connections and, when planned, seasonal pilgrimage or charter services. Overall demand for flight tickets is steady and practical, driven by residents, students, business travellers and visitors seeking faster access between Tokat and Türkiye's major air hubs.
