Arimathea City Airport (Trellinese: Khal'akon Forsika Arimathëka; IATA: ARM) is an international airport in Arimathea, primarily serving the country's capital city. It is located to the west of the city and the harbour, about 6 kilometres away from the city centre in the district of Serëforz.
Arimathea City Airport was established by a parliamentary act in 1968, after the Zarnadh Disaster forced the closure of Capital Airport for two years. It is one of three airports run by Transit Arimathea, the state transport authority, which also operates the national rail service and oversees the Trellinese Empire's largest seaport.
It is the busiest airport in Arimathea and one of the busiest in the Trellinese Empire, with as many as 18 million passengers per annum. It connects Arimathea and much of the northern empire to the rest of Astyria, being a key gateway to western Teudallum.
In 2017, it was awarded first place for Best Overall Service at a large airport in the empire-wide Air Industry Awards.
