List of airports in Yemen
This is a list of airports in Yemen, sorted by location.
Yemen, officially the Republic of Yemen, is a country located in Western Asia, occupying the southwestern to southern end of the Arabian Peninsula. It is bordered by Saudi Arabia to the north, the Red Sea to the west, the Gulf of Aden and Arabian Sea to the south, and Oman to the east. The capital and largest city of Yemen is Sana'a.
Yemen is divided into twenty governorates (muhafazah) and the Capital district. The governorates are subdivided into 333 districts (muderiah), which are subdivided into 2,210 sub-districts, and then into 38,284 villages (as of 2001).
As of 28 March 2015, a no-fly zone has been imposed over the country by the Saudi Air Force as part of the 2015 military intervention in Yemen, so airports are not operational.[1]
