Janakpur Airport — Janakpur, Nepal

JKR is the code for Janakpur Airport, serving Janakpur in southeastern Nepal's Terai plains, a city of major religious significance as the traditional birthplace of the goddess Sita and home to the Janaki Mandir temple. The airport supports domestic flights connecting Janakpur to Kathmandu, offering pilgrims and residents an alternative to lengthy overland travel through Nepal's lowlands. Nepalese carriers operate limited scheduled service from JKR, and the airport plays a role in supporting religious tourism as well as regional trade and administration in the culturally significant Mithila region straddling the Nepal-India border.
