Airport guide
Gilgit Airport (OPGT) is a medium airport in Gilgit, Pakistan. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code OPGT or IATA code GIL. It sits in Asia.
Gilgit 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.
Gilgit Airport sits at 4,796 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/Karachi. 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.
