Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport

Lucknow, India · Asia-Pacific

Adani-operated Lucknow gateway at Amausi — March 2024 Terminal 3 is now the only passenger hall, DigiYatra on select domestic T3 departures, Red Line metro at the Terminal 2 campus, and two live Priority Pass / LoungeKey soft rooms in T3 (Adani domestic + Budweiser international). Still a single 2,744 × 45 m runway with CAT IIIB on 27 only, where the boarding-pass terminal letter and the live lounge pin both matter.
