## Description

At roughly 72°N and temperatures that fall below −50 °C, Khatanga Airport (IATA: HTG, ICAO: UOHH) is one of very few airfields this far beyond the Arctic Circle to operate year-round. It stands on the Taymyr Peninsula in Krasnoyarsk Krai, just beside the settlement of the same name. Its runway accepts heavy Il-76 freighters and Tu-154s, making it the logistics base for Arctic expeditions — machinery, equipment and personnel for the North Pole 'Barneo' ice camp are flown in through here. There is no scheduled cargo service; the freight role is seasonal and charter-based, and the surrounding zone is militarily sensitive, requiring FSB border-guard permits. For routine air freight to northern Siberia, Norilsk (NSK) is the nearest larger gateway.
