About Long Sukang Airport
Long Sukang Airport is a small rural airfield in the Lawas Division of northern Sarawak, Malaysia, serving the Lun Bawang settlement of Long Sukang near the border with Indonesia. It is one of four airports in the Lawas Division and functions mainly as a local access point rather than a large commercial hub.
The airfield was improved in 1974 by the Malaysian Public Works Department and opened to scheduled Malaysia Airlines flights in April 1975, alongside airfields at Long Semadoh and Ba'kelalan. The improvements helped accelerate development among the Lun Bawang people in this remote highland area.
The airport has a single runway of about 402 metres and sits at an elevation of around 366 metres above sea level. Scheduled passenger services do not currently operate from the airport, so most access is by road from Lawas town, roughly 50 km away.
Because facilities are limited, travelers using Long Sukang Airport should confirm flight availability in advance and arrange onward transport. Road connections continue to Lawas and other settlements in northern Sarawak.
