Allahabad Airport (IATA: IXD, ICAO: VEAB), officially known as Deendayal Upadhyaya airport,[citation needed] is a military airbase and public airport serving the city of Allahabad, in the state of Uttar Pradesh, India. It is located in Bamrauli, 12 km (7.5 mi) from Allahabad city and serves domestic flights. It is one of the oldest airports in India. The airport is jointly operated by the Indian Air Force and Airports Authority of India. In 1911, on 18 February the domestic commercial aviation took birth in India where Henri Piquet flew a Humber bi-plane carrying mail from Allahabad (from a polo field) to Naini, which is approximately six miles away. The airport at Allahabad was built in 1919, with dedicated airfield whose construction was completed in 1924. It was among the first four international airports of the country. It catered to international flights till 1946, with direct services to London till 1932.

In 1931, the aerodrome at Allahabad was set up and the foundation for Air Traffic control services was laid with the appointment of an Indian Aerodrome Officer, specially trained at the airport in the UK. In July 1933, Imperial Airways commenced the operation of its flight on the Karachi-Jodhpur-Delhi-Kanpur-Allahabad-Kolkata route, which ran until June 1940. The airfield at Bamrauli was also used as one of the five compulsory stops of the MacRobertson Trophy Air Race which took place in October 1934.

From 1941 to the early 2000s, the airport did not cater to any regular commercial flight services. In early months of 2003, Air Sahara became the first carrier to re-introduce services at the airport with connectivity to cities like Delhi and Kolkata. However, the services soon became defunct following economic crisis. In 2005, Alliance Air (a regional connectivity subsidiary under Air India) started its Allahabad-Delhi flight service on the ATR-72 fleet, which continues to be operational to this date, with minor non-operational periods in between. In 2013, SpiceJet introduced its operation in the Delhi-Allahabad sector, along with Alliance Air commencing its Allahabad-Mumbai flight, both of which were closed down due to non-availability of ILS and Night Landing facility at the airport after running for a few months.

Seeking limited operational and structural facilities, construction of a new civilian terminal and installation of ILS system on existing runway began in January 2018. The newly constructed terminal was opened to public in January 2019 and since then is serving regular flight operations at Allahabad.
