Gateway to Iran's petrochemical heartland on the Persian Gulf.

Location
Mahshahr, Iran
Mahshahr Airport (IATA: MRX, ICAO: OIAM) serves the city of Bandar Imam Khomeini and the Mahshahr region in Khuzestan Province, southwestern Iran. The airport plays a key role in connecting the area's large industrial and petrochemical workforce to other Iranian cities. The airport primarily handles domestic flights within Iran, serving oil, gas, and petrochemical industry workers employed in one of Iran's most industrially significant zones. It operates under the oversight of Iran's Civil Aviation Organization (CAO). Given its industrial catchment area, passenger traffic is largely driven by business and worker travel rather than tourism, making it an operationally important regional airport despite its modest size.
