Zero Airport
Zero Airport or Ziro Airport (IATA: ZER, ICAO: VEZO) is located at Ziro in
the state of Arunachal Pradesh, India. In the past, Vayudoot and Air India
used to operate daily flights to the airport.
A Pre-feasibility study was conducted by the Ministry of Civil Aviation for
improving the airport to enable ATR-42 class aircraft in 2008. The study
found it unfeasible to extend the 1220 metre runway to accommodate a
50-seater aircraft, due to unauthorized constructions along the boundary
wall.
It was proposed that a new runway measuring 2010 metres be built on land
adjacent to the current runway and all airport structures like ATC tower,
fire station and terminal building be relocated.
Zero Airport is managed and control by Airports
Authority of India (AAI). The maximum terminal capacity for arrival and
departure is 25 passengers. The Airport is located 4 km from town center.
There is scheduled commercial flight in this Airport.
Jet Airways showed interest in flying into this Airport from Delhi, but did
not commence operations.
