Do you mean Kabul international airport? Or Kabul the city?
Well I have spent plenty of time in that airport and I can tell you it is pretty horrible. It is dirty. Seriously try and avoid the toilets and it you have to be there take hand sanitizer and toilet paper. It is also a good idea to bring a couple big bottles of water with you.
I don't think Afghanistan the country is listed in the travel section because people don't travel there for fun. Maybe one day I hope but not right now. It is a beautiful country in a way but it is so dirty and poor and a bit dangerous if you hadn't heard.
If you want info on the airport and city the ariana air website might have some. Are you going to Kabul? Why?

KÄbul (Pashto, Persian: کابÙ), is the capital and largest city of Afghanistan, with population of about 3 million people. It is an economic and cultural center, situated 5,900 feet (1,800 metres) above-sea-level in a narrow valley, wedged between the Hindu Kush mountains along the Kabul River. Kabul is linked with Ghazni, Kandahar, Herat and Mazari Sharif via a long beltway (circular highway) that stretches across Afghanistan. It is also linked by highways with Pakistan to the southeast and Tajikistan to the north.
Kabul's main products include ordnance, cloth, furniture, and beet sugar, though, since 1978, a state of nearly continuous war has limited the economic productivity of the city.
Kabul is over 3,000 years old. Many empires long fought over the city, due to its strategical location along the trade routes of Central Asia. In 1504, Babur made it the capital of his Moghul Empire. Finally, in 1776, Timur Shah Durrani made it the capital of modern Afghanistan.[2] The city's population is multicultural and multi-ethnic, reflecting the diversity of Afghanistan and the nearby regions, with Tajiks, Pashtuns, Hazaras, Uzbeks and others. Kabul is in the process of being rebuilt following decades of wars and destruction.
