About Mong Tong Airport
Mong Tong Airport is a small domestic airport serving Mong Tong, also written Mong Ton, in the Mong Hsat District of eastern Shan State, Myanmar. The town sits near the border with Thailand, and the airport provides a local air connection for this remote part of eastern Myanmar.
Located about 4 km from the town centre, the airport has a single dirt runway and one small passenger terminal. It handles a limited schedule of domestic services rather than large-scale international traffic, reflecting its role as a regional airfield.
The airport sits at an elevation of about 561 m (1,840 ft) and operates in Myanmar Standard Time, UTC+6:30. Because of its small size, travelers should plan onward transport in advance; the town can be reached by local taxi, hotel pickup or pre-arranged private transfer.
For visitors arriving in eastern Shan State, Mong Tong Airport offers a basic but functional entry point, with onward road connections to the town and surrounding villages. Facilities are limited, so it is best suited to travelers prepared for a simple regional airport experience.
