Air transportation in Armenia is the most convenient and comfortable means of getting into the country. There are large international airports that accept both external and domestic flights throughout the Republic. As of 2020, 11 airports operate in Armenia; however, only Yerevan's Zvartnots International Airport and Gyumri's Shirak Airport are in use for commercial aviation. Three airports, Syunik Airport, Stepanavan Airport and Goris Airport, are under reconstruction in Armenia. Once completed they will be used for commercial and civil aviation. Statistics show that the number of passengers arriving in the country by air transportation increases yearly.[1]
