About Juwata International Airport / Suharnoko Harbani AFB
Juwata Airport is a domestic airport serving Tarakan, the largest city in North Kalimantan, Indonesia. Located on the island of Tarakan off the coast of Borneo, the airport lies approximately 3.5 km from the city center and is the largest and busiest airport in North Kalimantan. It currently operates only domestic flights to major Indonesian cities such as Jakarta, Balikpapan, and Surabaya, as well as serving rural destinations in Kalimantan's interior. The airport's proximity to the tripoint border of Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines makes it a strategically important location for development as a regional hub. The airport previously offered international flights to Tawau in Sabah, Malaysia and Zamboanga in the Philippines, but all international routes were suspended in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result of the prolonged absence of international services, its international airport status was officially revoked in 2024.
