Uzhhorod International Airport, (Ukrainian: Міжнародний аеропорт «Ужгород»; Slovak: Medzinárodné letisko "Užhorod") (IATA: UDJ, ICAO: UKLU) is an international airport located in the city of Uzhgorod, in the western Ukrainian province of Zakarpattia. The airport is situated in the westernmost part of the city, in the Chervenytsia district at 145, Sobranetska Street.
It is a small airport, serving Uzhgorod and the whole oblast. The airport is unique in its operation: the runway begins 90 meters from the Ukrainian-Slovak international border, so planes must use Slovak airspace for take-offs and landings under special treaty.
As of July 2016, there are no longer any scheduled services at the airport as Motor Sich Airlines ceased its domestic service to Kiev which was the only destination from Uzhhorod.
