The airport, Chittagong.

Chittagong Airport
The airport is located in the Patenga area of the city in chittagong. It’s 10 kilometers west from the city's main commercial hub, GEC Circle and 18.5 km south of the city's railway station on the North bank of the Karnaphuli River. There are no hotels or restaurants near the airport. The airport was built in the early 1940 under the British rule. It officially became a Bangladeshi airport in 1972 after Bangladesh's liberation war. At first it was mainly used for connecting Dhaka and Chittagong, but in the mid 1990 Bangladesh Airlines started international flights to Dubai and a few Saudi Arabian cities and the airport officially became an international airport.
