The airport was originally built by the British in 1942 as an airstrip for military purposes. It was later converted into a civilian airport in 1962. The airport has a single runway that is 2,200 meters long and 45 meters wide. It can handle aircraft up to the size of a Boeing 737. The airport is served by Air India and Alliance Air, which offer flights to Kolkata and Guwahati.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they are not the locations of any operational airports in Meghalaya.
