Kolkata Airport (CCU), officially Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport, serves Kolkata in West Bengal, India. Domestic and international flights use an integrated passenger terminal, with separate areas for their departure processes. The airport's Metro connection, arrivals-level taxi services and passenger facilities help you plan both the flight and the next part of your journey.

Where is Kolkata Airport, and what is CCU?

The airport is in Dum Dum and serves Kolkata, West Bengal. CCU is its IATA code, while VECC is its ICAO code. You may also see the name written Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport; both spellings refer to CCU. Keep your destination address available when choosing a taxi or planning a Metro journey, because the city name on your flight ticket does not identify the final part of your trip.
