Yogyakarta International Airport Station (YIA) (Indonesian: Stasiun Yogyakarta International Airport/Stasiun Bandar Udara Internasional Yogyakarta) is a class I airport rail link station located at Yogyakarta International Airport in Glagah, Temon, Kulon Progo, Special Region of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The station is located at an altitude of +22 m, and is currently the southernmost active station in the province. The station is located within the airport complex and only serves YIA Airport Rail link trips to and from Yogyakarta Station. When it is in operation, the station assists the role of Wojo Station as the closest station to YIA Airport.

KAI Bandara, a joint subsidiary of Kereta Api Indonesia (KAI) and Angkasa Pura II, took over the station's management from Operational Region VI Yogyakarta of the KAI since 1 April 2022, so that it becomes the first airport train station inside an Angkasa Pura I asset managed by the Angkasa Pura II subsidiary.[3]

YIA station was opened simultaneously with the YIA Rail Link in a pre-official launch event on 27 August 2021, by the Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Panjaitan, Minister of Transportation Budi Karya Sumadi, Deputy Minister of State-owned Enterprises Kartika Wirjoatmodjo, and the Governor of Special Region of Yogyakarta Hamengkubuwono X.[2] The station and its airport train operation was started from 1 September 2021.[4][5]
