A January 2021 report by the [[Parliament of India]] described the IATA code as "inappropriate, unsuitable, offensive and embarrassing" for Gaya due to the city's religious significance. In its report, the Committee on Public Undertakings recommended changing the airport code from "GAY" to "YAG", asking the government to "make all efforts" to change the code. As of February 2022, IATA has rejected a code change, stating that airport codes are permanent unless a strong justification relating to air safety is given.<ref>{{Cite news|title='GAY' code for Gaya airport inappropriate; make all efforts to change it: Parliamentary panel tells govt|work=The Economic Times|url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/india/gay-code-for-gaya-airport-inappropriate-make-all-efforts-to-change-it-parliamentary-panel-tells-govt/articleshow/89381568.cms|access-date=2022-02-15}}</ref> LGBT groups in India have criticized the parliamentary committee's request as reflective of [[homophobia]].<ref>{{Cite web|last=Farrukh|first=Rimal|date=7 February 2022|title=Lawmakers Say This Holy City's Airport Code Is Too GAY|url=https://www.vice.com/en/article/5dgwda/india-gaya-airport-code-gay-change-homophobia|access-date=2022-02-15|website=Vice|language=en}}</ref>

Gaya Airport (IATA: GAY, ICAO: VEGY) is an international airport serving Gaya, Bihar, India. This airport is 12 kilometres south-west of Gaya and 5 kilometres away from the temple city of Bodh Gaya, from where Gautama Buddha attained enlightenment.

Overview

Gaya Airport is spread over an area of 954 acres. An additional 100 acres of land is under encroachment while another 100 acres of land from four villages is to be acquired for runway expansion. The airport terminal building, spread over 7,500 square meters can handle 250 incoming and 250 outgoing passengers. This airport is mainly seasonal and primarily caters to Buddhist tourists coming from South East Asian countries like Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia, etc.[3]

A January 2021 report by the Parliament of India described the IATA code as "inappropriate, unsuitable, offensive and embarrassing" for Gaya due to the city's religious significance. In its report, the Committee on Public Undertakings recommended changing the airport code from "GAY" to "YAG", asking the government to "make all efforts" to change the code. As of February 2022, IATA has rejected a code change, stating that airport codes are permanent unless a strong justification relating to air safety is given.[4] LGBT groups in India have criticized the parliamentary committee's request as reflective of homophobia.[5]

Expansion

An additional 100 acres of land is under encroachment while another 100 acres of land from four villages is to be acquired for runway expansion. The Airports Authority of India (AAI) plans to develop the airport as a standby to the Kolkata Airport.[6] Minister of State for Civil Aviation K C Venugopal had informed the Rajya Sabha on 28 August 2013 that Airports Authority of India (AAI) has requested the government of Bihar for a further acquisition of around 200 acres to allow the airport to be expanded. The airport is to be expanded and upgraded with the construction of a new passenger terminal building which would replace the current terminal structure. Other expansion works include expanding runaway 10/28, and installation of CAT-1 ILS approach lighting. In the future, a cargo terminal has also been planned to be built.[7]
