=== Transport === {{Main|Transport in Kosovo}} {{See also|Motorways in Kosovo}} [[File:Prishtina International Airport "Adem Jashari" Limak Kosovo.jpg|thumb|right|The [[Pristina International Airport]] (PRN) handles more than 3.4 million passengers per year]] Road transportation of passengers and freight is the most common form of transportation in Kosovo. There are two main motorways in Kosovo: the [[Albania–Kosovo Highway|R7]] connecting Kosovo with [[Albania]] and the [[R6 Motorway (Kosovo)|R6]] connecting [[Pristina]] to the Macedonian border at [[Hani i Elezit]]. The construction of the [[R7.1 Motorway (Kosovo)|R7.1 Motorway]] began in 2017. The [[R7 Motorway (Kosovo)|R7 Motorway]] (part of [[Albania-Kosovo Highway]]) links Kosovo to [[Albania]]'s [[Adriatic]] coast in [[Durrës]]. Once the remaining [[European route E80|European route (E80)]] from [[Pristina]] to [[Merdare]] section project will be completed, the motorway will link Kosovo through the present [[European route E80|European route (E80)]] highway with the [[Pan-European corridor X]] ([[European route E75|E75]]) near [[Niš]] in Serbia. The [[R6 Motorway (Kosovo)|R6 Motorway]], forming part of the [[European route E65|E65]], is the second motorway constructed in the region. It links the capital [[Pristina]] with the border with North Macedonia at [[Hani i Elezit]], which is about {{convert|20|km|abbr=on}} from [[Skopje]]. Construction of the motorway started in 2014 and finished in 2019.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mit-ks.net/sq/lajme/arben-xhaferie-gatshme-per-qarkullim |title="Arbën Xhaferi"e gatshme për qarkullim |publisher=[[Ministry of Environment, Spatial Planning and Infrastructure of Kosovo]] |date=29 May 2019 |language=sq-AL |access-date=5 September 2022 |archive-date=5 September 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220905012224/http://www.mit-ks.net/sq/lajme/arben-xhaferie-gatshme-per-qarkullim |url-status=live }}</ref> [[Trainkos]] operates daily passenger trains on two routes: [[Pristina]] – [[Fushë Kosovë railway station|Fushë Kosovë]] – [[Pejë]], as well as [[Pristina]] – [[Fushë Kosovë]] – [[Ferizaj]] – [[Skopje]], [[North Macedonia]] (the latter in cooperation with [[Macedonian Railways]]).<ref>{{Cite web|title=Transporti i udhëtarëve|url=http://www.trainkos.com/sherbimet/transporti-i-udhetareve/|access-date=2021-05-28|publisher=[[Trainkos]]|language=sq-AL|archive-date=16 May 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210516212413/https://www.trainkos.com/sherbimet/transporti-i-udhetareve/|url-status=live}}</ref> Also, freight trains run throughout the country. The nation hosts two airports, [[Pristina International Airport]] and [[Gjakova Airport]]. Pristina International Airport is located southwest of [[Pristina]]. It is Kosovo's only international airport and the only port of entry for air travelers to Kosovo. Gjakova Airport was built by the [[Kosovo Force]] (KFOR) following the [[Kosovo War]], next to an existing airfield used for agricultural purposes, and was used mainly for military and humanitarian flights. The local and national government plans to offer [[Gjakova Airport]] for operation under a public-private partnership with the aim of turning it into a civilian and commercial airport.<ref>{{cite web|title=Aktivitetet e Ministrisë së Tregtisë dhe Industrisë: Themelohet Ndërmarrja Publike 'Aeroporti i Gjakovës'|url=http://www.mti-ks.org/sq/Aktivitetet-e-MTI-se/Themelohet-Ndermarrja-Publike-Aeroporti-i-Gjakoves-2882-2882|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150227170445/http://www.mti-ks.org/sq/Aktivitetet-e-MTI-se/Themelohet-Ndermarrja-Publike-Aeroporti-i-Gjakoves-2882-2882|archive-date=27 February 2015|publisher=Ministria e Tregtisë dhe Industrisë}}</ref>
