About Madang Airport
Madang Airport serves the town of Madang and Madang Province on Papua New Guinea's northern coast. It provides domestic flights linking Madang with Port Moresby and regional centres such as Wewak, Mount Hagen and Lae, and acts as the main air gateway for visitors heading to the area's dive resorts and coastal destinations.
The airport has a single runway and a compact, single-storey passenger terminal. The airfield dates back to before the Second World War and was used as a forward operating airfield during the conflict; today it handles scheduled domestic services operated mainly by Air Niugini and PNG Air.
Located about 2 km northwest of Madang town centre, the airport is close to hotels, dive operators, markets and the harbour. Taxis, hotel shuttles and pre-arranged private transfers provide onward connections to the town and surrounding coastal areas.
With basic but functional passenger facilities, including a waiting lounge and a small refreshment kiosk, Madang Airport offers a straightforward arrival point for travellers exploring the northern coast and islands of Papua New Guinea.
