Location
Abadan, Iran
Abadan Ayatollah Jami International Airport (IATA: ABD, ICAO: OIAA) is located in Abadan, Khuzestan Province, southwestern Iran, near the confluence of the Shatt al-Arab waterway and the Persian Gulf region. The airport serves as the primary air link for the city of Abadan and surrounding areas, which are historically significant for Iran's petroleum industry. The airport operates domestic routes connecting Abadan to Tehran and other Iranian cities, with limited international connectivity. It has historically been an important facility given the strategic and economic importance of the Abadan oil refinery, one of the largest in the world. The airport suffered damage during the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980s and was subsequently rebuilt and rehabilitated.
