## Description

Few airports in Papua New Guinea sit as close to a working harbour as Madang: the field lies within the town, a short walk from the seaport, which makes it a useful reference point for combined air-and-sea movements. Air Niugini and PNG Air operate the scheduled flights, while Regional Air, Hevilift and Heli-Niugini base charter, helicopter and supply operations here. Cargo travels mainly as belly freight on scheduled services and aboard the charter fleet; heavier consignments and the region's ocean traffic move through Madang's seaport and the industrial centre of Lae. Customs and security rest with Papua New Guinea's national authorities, and international air freight is cleared via Port Moresby. Serving the north-coast province of Madang, the airport links a scattered coastal and island population to the national network.
