Gateway to Azad Kashmir's Poonch district highlands.

Location
Rawalakot, Pakistan
Rawalakot Airport (IATA: RAZ, ICAO: OPRT) is a small domestic airport serving Rawalakot, the capital of Poonch District in Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistan. Situated in a mountainous valley, the airport provides vital air connectivity to a region where road travel can be slow and difficult due to challenging terrain. The airport has historically operated limited scheduled services, with flights primarily connecting Rawalakot to Islamabad. Operations have been intermittent over the years, subject to weather conditions, airline scheduling decisions, and infrastructure constraints common to high-altitude airfields in the region.
Terminals
The airport has a single small terminal building with basic passenger handling facilities suited to low-volume domestic traffic.
Getting to & from
Ground transport between the airport and Rawalakot city center is primarily via private vehicles and taxis, as no formal public transit system serves the route.
