Location

Aamby Valley City, India

Aamby Valley Airport is a private airfield located within Aamby Valley City, a planned township developed by the Sahara India Pariwar group in the Pune district of Maharashtra, India. The airport was constructed as part of the ambitious integrated township project and was intended to serve residents, corporate visitors, and charter flights. The airport operates under ICAO code VAAV and does not hold an IATA code, reflecting its status as a non-commercial, private facility. It has not functioned as a regular scheduled commercial airport and has seen very limited operations, largely tied to the fortunes of the Sahara group, which faced significant financial and legal difficulties in the 2010s. Aamby Valley City itself was conceived as a self-contained smart city with its own infrastructure including the airstrip, hospital, schools, and hotels. However, the broader project stalled amid the Sahara group's legal troubles, leaving the airport largely inactive.

The airport is located within the self-contained Aamby Valley City township, accessible by road from Pune, approximately 100 kilometers away.
