Kannur International Airport · CNN
Kannur International Airport at Mattannur opened up north Malabar — Thalassery, Bekal, Kasaragod and the Wayanad plateau are all now within a comfortable drive.
About this airport
Professional pickup and drop from Kannur International Airport, Mattannur, across north Malabar.
CNN is around 28 km inland from Kannur town, through pleasant but winding countryside. Because the airport is newer, local taxi availability at odd hours can be thin — pre-booking here matters more than at Kochi or Trivandrum, particularly for late-evening arrivals.
