## Description

PAB stands for Bilasa Devi Kevat Airport, named after a legendary ferrywoman of Chhattisgarh — a regional airfield that only joined India's scheduled network in March 2021 under the UDAN regional connectivity scheme. Alliance Air's ATR-72s link the city with Delhi, Jabalpur, Prayagraj and Bhopal. There is no air cargo infrastructure on site; freight from the region is routed through Swami Vivekananda Airport in Raipur (RPR), roughly 120 kilometres away. Rail is the real logistics story here: Bilaspur hosts the headquarters of South East Central Railway, one of India's heaviest coal- and mineral-hauling zones.
