Distance & flight time from BEP

Bellary Airport

Bellary Airport operates under the code BEP in Bellary, a city in the Indian state of Karnataka that state authorities officially renamed Ballari in 2014. The airport sits at just 30 feet of elevation and works with a single runway, making it one of the flatter airfields in this part of the Deccan plateau region. Bellary has long been associated with iron ore mining, and the surrounding district remains one of Karnataka's centers for that industry. Aviation records still list the airport under its older city name even though local usage has largely shifted to Ballari. BEP functions as a regional facility rather than a major commercial gateway, serving a district known more for mining and agriculture than for tourism.
