Flights to Malda
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Malda is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Shah Makhdum Airport (RJH), 79 km (49 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 6,000 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shah Makhdum Airport (regional) | RJH | 79 km (49 mi) | 6,000 ft | 64 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 6,000 ft, RJH handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 64 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
