About Nambaiyufa Airport
Nambaiyufa Airport is a small public airport serving the Nambaiyufa area in the Eastern Highlands Province of Papua New Guinea. It provides a local air link for highland communities and connects passengers with domestic routes elsewhere in the country.
Located about 25 km southwest of Goroka, the provincial capital, the airport functions mainly as a regional gateway. Its single small terminal handles domestic arrivals and departures, with basic passenger facilities suited to a quieter rural airfield.
The airport is reached by road from Goroka and nearby highland communities, and onward travel typically continues by private vehicle, taxi or pre-arranged transfer. Travelers should allow extra time for mountainous roads and changing weather conditions.
As a small domestic airport, Nambaiyufa offers a straightforward travel experience rather than extensive commercial amenities, so advance planning for transfers, accommodation and onward journeys is recommended.
