Flights to Janakpur
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Janakpur is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Janakpur Airport (JKR), 2 km (1 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 3,300 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Darbhanga Airport (DBR, 60 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Janakpur Airport (regional) | JKR | 2 km (1 mi) | 3,300 ft | 256 ft |
| Darbhanga Airport (regional) | DBR | 60 km (37 mi) | 9,000 ft | 156 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 3,300 ft, JKR handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 256 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
