Location

Fujairah, United Arab Emirates

Fujairah International Airport (IATA: FJR, ICAO: OMFJ) is a regional airport serving the Emirate of Fujairah on the eastern coast of the United Arab Emirates, facing the Gulf of Oman rather than the Persian Gulf. It handles both commercial passenger flights and cargo operations, supporting the emirate's growing role as a trade and tourism hub. The airport is operated by the Fujairah Aviation Centre and serves as an important access point for travelers heading to Fujairah's beaches, mountains, and historic sites. Its location on the Gulf of Oman coast makes it strategically distinct from most other UAE airports, which are situated along the Persian Gulf side. While smaller than Dubai or Abu Dhabi's major hubs, Fujairah International has undergone expansion efforts to increase capacity and attract more airlines, supporting regional connectivity within the UAE and to neighboring countries.
