Duhok International Airport, which had been decided on in the Fifth Cabinet, will be the third airport in the Kurdistan Region to which travelers will have direct access to the province after its completion in 2015. Academics and businessmen in Duhok regard this project a crucial factor in booming trading and tourism sectors in Duhok and the Region. "The airport will be a shortcut to tourists as w
ell as the investors who seek investment in the area." The airport building facilities have been designed by the Lebanese Dar Al-Handasa Engineering and ADPI of France. The Turkish Makyol is the construction company which is supervised by a team from South Korea's Incheon International Airport on behalf of the KRG. The KRG has allocated US 400$ million on a 21 square kilometre land in the west of Duhok city. It's planned to be completed in two and a half years.
