## Description

A tourist airfield in one of Asia's most storied frontier zones, Kengtung Airport (IATA: KET) carries passengers, not cargo. Set in the eastern Shan hills near the China–Laos–Thailand tri-border, it offers domestic flights to Mandalay, Tachileik and Yangon but no freight facilities. Air shipments route through Mandalay (MDL) or Yangon (RGN), while Golden Triangle cross-border trade travels mainly by road.
