About Nowshahr Airport

Noshahr Airport (IATA: NSH, ICAO: OINN) (Persian: فرودگاه نوشهر) is an airport in Noshahr, Mazandaran province, Iran.

Noshahhr was one of the touristic places and the most important port cities of northern Iran during the Pahlavi era. Noshahr was known as the summer capital of Iran, therefore the airport was used as a way to serve the former royal family of Iran or foreign officials visiting the Shah from Tehran. The airport was also aimed at serving the tourists visiting Noshahr and established special flights for employees of the National Iranian Oil Company to bring them from Ahvaz to Noshahr which was the closest airport to the National Iranian Oil Company hotels.
