Payam Karaj International Airport

Payam Karaj International Airport (OIIP) is a medium airport in Karaj, Iran. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code OIIP or IATA code PYK. It sits in Asia.

Payam Karaj International Airport is a regional commercial airport that doubles as a busy private-aviation base. Operators benefit from full instrument approaches and an FBO infrastructure scaled for regular jet traffic, often without the congestion of the nearest major hub.

Payam Karaj International Airport sits at 4,170 ft above sea level. Hot-and-high conditions can meaningfully reduce takeoff performance in summer — planners should factor density altitude into payload and fuel decisions.

Local operations run on Asia/Tehran. Scheduled airline service is light enough that it rarely interferes with charter movements, though planners should still expect to coordinate with the handling agent for international turnarounds.

SkyAccess inventory for OIIP updates continuously as operators publish new empty legs and one-way repositioning trips. Pricing on each leg is available with a free account, and an inventory alert will email you the moment a leg appears on the route you care about.
