Bir Tikendrajit International Airport (IATA: IMF, ICAO: VEIM), also known as Imphal Airport, and formerly known as Tulihal International Airport, is an international airport serving Imphal, the capital of Manipur, India, located 7 km south from the city centre. It is the second-largest and the third-busiest airport in Northeast India after Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport in Guwahati and Maharaja Bir Bikram Airport in Agartala. The airport had functioned as an all-weather Royal Air Force (RAF) base during World War II. It replaced civilian operations from Koirengei Airfield in 1959.
