About Bosset Airport

Bosset Airport is a small airfield serving Bosset, a village in Western Province, Papua New Guinea. It provides an important air connection for remote communities along the Fly River and surrounding parts of Western Province.

The airport has a single unpaved runway, designated 14/32, with a grassed brown clay surface approximately 700 metres long. It mainly handles domestic and charter flights rather than international scheduled services.

Bosset is located in the far west of Papua New Guinea, roughly 535 km west of Port Moresby, with Kiunga as the nearest larger town about 125 km to the north. Air travel is a key link for the village, and the surrounding Fly River system also supports transport in the region.

Facilities at the airport are modest, so travellers should confirm onward transport and any assistance in advance. Despite its small size, Bosset Airport is a practical gateway for local residents, government staff, aid workers and visitors travelling to the Fly River region.
