Shalkar Airport (ICAO: UATR) is a small regional aerodrome located near the town of Shalkar in the Aktobe Region of western Kazakhstan. It serves the local administrative center and surrounding steppe communities, offering limited scheduled or charter air connectivity to reduce the isolation of this remote area. The airport operates at a basic level of infrastructure, typical of smaller Kazakhstani regional aerodromes. It is subject to the oversight of Kazakhstan's civil aviation authorities and primarily handles light aircraft and occasional regional turboprop services rather than large commercial jets.
