Flights to Rasht
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Rasht is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Sardar-e-Jangal Airport (RAS), 6 km (4 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,571 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sardar-e-Jangal Airport (regional) | RAS | 6 km (4 mi) | 9,571 ft | -40 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,571 ft, RAS handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at -40 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
