Kukes International Airport in Albania has begun operations, with the first flight arriving from London, UK on April 18 following a short stop at Tirana International Airport to pick up Prime Minister Edi Rama for the official inauguration.
The airport, which has been constructed on a former refugee campsite 144km northeast of Albania’s capital, Tirana, at a cost of US$28.7m, will ‘open the gates’ to the economic development of the Kukes district, according to Prime Minister Rama.




Vlorė International Airport is an airport project expected to start building in 2021, in the city of Vlorė in Albania. This will be the third international airport in Albania after Tirana International Airport and Kukės International Airport. In addition to the construction of the airport, the project includes a marina and agri-tourism site.[1] The new airport is expected to have a major impact on economic growth and tourism.
