Location

Kerema, Papua New Guinea

Kerema Airport (IATA: KMA, ICAO: AYKM) is a small regional airport serving Kerema, the capital of Gulf Province in Papua New Guinea. It provides essential air connectivity for a region that lacks adequate road infrastructure, making air travel the primary means of reaching the town. The airport supports light aircraft and turboprop operations typical of Papua New Guinea's regional aviation network. It plays a vital role in facilitating access to government services, medical supply chains, and cargo movement for the surrounding communities. Given the remote and underdeveloped nature of the Gulf Province, the airport is a critical lifeline for residents and serves as a hub for humanitarian and government logistics in addition to scheduled passenger services.

Terminals

The airport has a basic, single terminal building with minimal passenger facilities consistent with a small regional PNG airport.

Getting to & from

Ground transport options are limited, with taxis and local vehicles providing the primary means of travel between the airport and Kerema town.

Airlines here

Air Niugini and/or its regional subsidiary Link PNG have historically operated services to Kerema connecting it to Port Moresby.
