Berane Airport (Montenegrin/Serbian: Аеродром Беране, "Aerodrom Berane") Airport codes|IVG|LYBR is an airport located near Berane, Montenegro. It is also known as "Dolac Airport". Berane was known as Ivangrad from July 1949 to March 1992, hence the IATA code IVG.

It is one of the three Montenegrin airports to feature paved runway and terminal building. Berane Airport was used for regular airline traffic during the SFRY era, but has since fell indo disuse. Today is used mostly by general aviation. There is an ongoing debate on whether Berane Airport should be invested in and possibly revitalized as an international airport. Berane city officials, as well as general public in north eastern Montenegro favours the reconstruction, while government authorities question the project's viability.

History

On 21 July 1961, the Belgrade-Ivangrad line was opened by JAT Yugoslav Airlines with an Douglas DC-3 airliner.
