Şanlıurfa GAP Airport (IATA: GNY, ICAO: LTCS) is an airport located in Şanlıurfa Province, Turkey. It is located about 18.3 nautical miles (33.9 km; 21.1 mi) northeast of the city centre of Şanlıurfa.

The airport is part of the Southeastern Anatolia Project (Turkish: Güneydoğu Anadolu Projesi, known as "GAP"), a regional development project in the area of the Atatürk Dam. The new airport is known as the "GAP airport" because it is designed to service the workers in the GAP project as well as the city of Şanlıurfa. Opened the 17 June 2007, it replaced the old Şanlıurfa Airport (IATA: SFQ, ICAO: LTCH), which was located 9 km (5.6 mi) south of the city.^[1]

The airport facilities include cafes, car hire offices, and airline ticket offices, but almost all facilities, including even the taxi rank, are staffed only when flights are due.
