Location

Taba, Egypt

Taba International Airport (IATA: TCP, ICAO: HETB) is a small international airport serving the resort town of Taba in the South Sinai Governorate of Egypt, situated near the borders of Israel, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia at the northern tip of the Gulf of Aqaba. The airport primarily serves leisure and charter traffic, catering to tourists visiting the Sinai Peninsula's Red Sea resorts and the nearby Taba Heights resort complex. Its strategic border location also gives it significance for regional transit movements. Due to its small size and remote location, scheduled commercial service has historically been limited, with the airport relying heavily on seasonal charter flights from European markets.
