Jeb!ultepec Airport (Varshani: Jeb!ultepec Jurdaŋ) is an airport serving the city of Jeb!ultepec in west-central Varshan, near Lake Jeb!ultepec on the Nužul Plateau. Constructed and operated by the Varshani Ministry of Works in 1984, the airport served as a medium-high traffic cargo airport, opening to passenger services in 1998. In 2024, during the closing months of the Final War of the Deluge, the airport was captured by the Kiravian Army. After repairing damage from sabotage committed by fleeing Varshani troops, the Kiravian Armed Forces used Jeb!ultepec as an insertion point for fresh reïnforcements flown in from bases in Mid-Atrassic Crona and Æonara. As of 2025, the airport continues to function as a Kiravian airbase, and is the seat of the Kiravian military administration of occupied eastern Varshan. Its grounds have been redeveloped and expanded to accommodate the Kiravian Airforce presence as well as administrative and support facilities for the military and occupation bureaucracy based there.

Commercial aviation services (mainly cargo) resumed in 2029. Passenger flights are mainly charters for the rotation of Kiravian and League of Nations personnel and aid workers.

On 1 July 2038, the main gate of the military cantonment section of the airport complex was the target of a suicide attack by the Arzalist Black Hand insurgent group. Black Hand militants used an aviation fuel truck with a modified cab to ram the gate facilities and rigges explosives to ensure the detonation of the truck's payload. The attack resulted in the deaths of eighteen Kiravian servicemen (sixteen Air Force and two Army), a Defence Executive civilian employee, and a Varshani civilian bystander, as well as the three perpetrators.
