Gimhae International Airport, commonly known as Gimhae Airport (IATA: PUS, ICAO: RKPK) (formerly Kimhae International Airport) is the main hub for Air Busan, Asiana Airlines and Korean Air. Runway 18L/36R is used for military purposes only for Gimhae Air Base, but due to increasing traffic, there are plans to open the runway for airliners. It is located on the western end of Busan, South Korea. The name "Gimhae" comes from the nearby city of Gimhae. It opened in 1976. A new international terminal opened on October 31, 2007. In 2018, 17,064,613 passengers used the airport.
As the airport is now beyond its design capacity and surrounded with mountains, buildings etc, a new airport is proposed to be built on Gadeokdo to meet growing demand.
