New Khartoum International Airport (Arabic:مطار الخرطوم الدولي الجديد) is an international airport under construction in Omdourman, Sudan, 40 km (25 mi) south of Khartoum's city centre.

History

Completion was scheduled for 2022.[1] This was planned to have two 4,000 metres (13,000 ft) runways, a passenger terminal of 86,000 square metres (930,000 sq ft) and a 300-room international hotel.[2][3] Construction was to be carried out by China Harbour Engineering Co. (CHEC),[4] but the Turkey-based construction firm Summa was later selected for construction of New Khartoum Airport in 2018,[5] but construction has been suspended as of 2021.[1]
