Zaranj Airport (Pashto: زرنج هوایي ډگر; Dari: فرودگاه زرنج; IATA: ZAJ, ICAO: OAZJ) was an airport located in the city of Zaranj, Nimruz Province, Afghanistan.
[2] It was replaced by the newly constructed Nimruz Airport, located 17 kilometres (11 mi) east of the city.
As of 2020, Zaranj Airport is no longer listed in the Afghan Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP).
Flight safety was one of the reasons cited that led to the construction of the new airport in view of the small runway and nearby residential houses.
