About Kornasoren Airport
Kornasoren Airport is a small regional airport serving Numfor Island in the Biak Numfor Regency of Papua, Indonesia. It provides an essential air link between the island's communities and destinations such as Biak and Manokwari, supporting domestic travel, cargo and medical supply transport.
The airfield has a wartime past, having been used as a military airstrip on Numfor during the Pacific War. It now operates as a civil airport with a single asphalt runway of about 1,755 metres and a compact passenger terminal designed for light aircraft operations.
Located close to the village of Kornasoren on the north coast of Numfor Island, the airport sits near the island's small settlements and coastal areas. Ground transport is limited, with local motorcycle taxis and pre-arranged private vehicles providing the main connections to nearby villages.
Passenger facilities are basic but functional, reflecting the airport's remote regional role. Scheduled services are typically operated by small aircraft, so travellers should confirm flight details with their airline before heading to the airport.
