About Mittebah Airport
Mittebah Airport is a small remote airstrip that serves Mittiebah Station and the eastern Barkly region of the Northern Territory, close to the Queensland border. It mainly supports general aviation, charter flights and station operations rather than scheduled commercial passenger services.
The airstrip has two unsealed runways, designated 09/27 and 18/36, and sits at an elevation of about 865 feet. Operations are generally visual and daytime only, with no lit runway or regular passenger terminal.
Located in the Nicholson locality of the Barkly Shire, the airport is roughly 165 km from Camooweal, about 315 km from Tennant Creek and about 330 km from Mount Isa. Access is by outback road, and most visitors coordinate four-wheel-drive transfers, station pickups or hire vehicles in advance.
Because on-site facilities are limited, travellers should plan fuel, supplies and support with their operator or the station before arriving. The airstrip functions as a practical access point for station work, aerial services and travel across this remote part of northern Australia.
