Dehradun Jolly Grant Airport

Dehradun Jolly Grant Airport (VIDN) is a medium airport in Dehradun (Jauligrant), India. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code VIDN or IATA code DED. It sits in Asia.

Dehradun Jolly Grant 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.

Dehradun Jolly Grant Airport lies at 1,831 ft elevation.

Local operations run on Asia/Kolkata. 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.
