About Mopah International Airport
Mopah Airport is a domestic airport located in Merauke, the largest town in South Papua province, Indonesia. It is the second easternmost airport in Indonesia after Sentani International Airport in Jayapura. Situated approximately 3 km from the town center, it is the largest and busiest airport in South Papua, serving as the primary gateway to Merauke and the province as a whole. The airport also provides access to nearby tourist destinations, most notably Wasur National Park. At present, scheduled services are limited to flights to Makassar and Jayapura, along with pioneer flights to smaller towns and villages in the interior of South Papua. Although the airport holds international status, it does not currently handle scheduled international flights, despite having previously served routes to Papua New Guinea.
