Al Ismailiyya Air Base is an Egyptian Air Force installation located near the city of Ismailia, situated along the western bank of the Suez Canal in northeastern Egypt. The base serves a strategic military role given its proximity to the canal, one of the world's most important maritime chokepoints. The facility is primarily a military airfield with no scheduled commercial passenger operations. It falls under the operational command of the Egyptian Air Force and supports national defense missions in the region.
