Muzaffarpur Airport is located at Muzaffarpur, in the state of Bihar, India. It was to be built for the arrival of Indira Gandhi, the then Prime Minister of India. From 1967 to 1982, flights for Patna operated on a regular basis from airport based in Patahi, Muzaffarpur. In 2018, this airport was added to UDAN to connect people with other cities. RITES delegates surveyed and submitted report. Later ₹60 crore has been issued to reestablish this airport so that flight for Kolkata, Ranchi, Varanasi, Gaya etc in a 30 to 60 seater plane could fly soon.
