Practical Notes
The airport sits at a low elevation of 138 feet (42 metres), and its single asphalt runway, designated 04/22, is 3500 feet long, which reflects the airport’s modest scale. For travellers, that mainly means keeping plans simple: confirm transport in advance, allow extra flexibility around flight timings, and avoid assuming the range of facilities you might find at a major city airport. Because the airport operates on Asia/Kolkata time, it is worth double-checking departure and pickup arrangements if you are arriving from another part of India or connecting from abroad. For a smooth trip, think of Cooch Behar Airport as a practical local gateway rather than a destination in itself.
