About Moanamani Airport

Moanamani Airport (ONI) is a small domestic airport serving Moanemani and Dogiyai Regency in the highlands of Central Papua, Indonesia. It began as an emergency airstrip built to support small-scale pioneer flights, because road access to the mountainous region is limited.

The airport has a single 960-metre runway and a small passenger terminal used mainly for domestic pioneer services. Small STOL aircraft such as the DHC-6 Twin Otter and Cessna 208 connect Moanamani with regional centres including Nabire and Timika.

Located at Kampung Ikebo in Kamu District, the airport sits roughly 6 km from Moanemani town and about 100 km from Nabire. Onward travel to Moanemani is typically by road using local vehicles, while longer regional journeys often continue by air.

Facilities are basic but sufficient for essential travel, with a compact waiting area and limited commercial services. The airport plays an important role in connecting isolated highland communities, local government, health services and freight across the region.
