Two scheduled flights a week to Altai, an apron shared with the military and an elevation of roughly 1,860 metres: Bayankhongor Airport (BYN/ZMBH) is a domestic field serving the capital of Bayankhongor province in southern Mongolia. It is operated by the Civil Aviation Authority of Mongolia, and MIAT Mongolian Airlines currently provides the scheduled service; Hunnu Air, Aero Mongolia, Eznis Airways and Munkh Air have served the airport in the past. Freight travels only as belly loading on those domestic flights, typically in small turboprops, and no cargo terminal, customs clearance or dangerous-goods handling is confirmed. International air freight for the province is therefore consolidated at Ulaanbaatar's Chinggis Khaan International (UBN) and trucked roughly 600 kilometres west. The high elevation also limits payload for larger aircraft, which is worth clarifying early when planning a charter.
