Location

Long Datih, Malaysia

Long Lellang Airport is a small rural airstrip located in the remote interior of Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo, serving the settlement of Long Datih and surrounding indigenous Kenyah communities in the Baram district. The airport plays a vital role in connecting isolated longhouse communities to the coast, as road access to the region is extremely limited or nonexistent. The airport is served by small turboprop aircraft operated by MASwings, which provides essential air services linking the interior of Sarawak to larger towns such as Miri. These flights are critical for residents who depend on air travel for medical emergencies, commerce, and general transport. The facility is a basic airstrip without significant terminal infrastructure, typical of the many rural air access points maintained across interior Sarawak to support remote indigenous populations.

Terminals

The airport has no formal terminal building, only basic minimal facilities consistent with a rural interior Sarawak airstrip.

Getting to & from

Ground transport options are extremely limited due to the remote location, with most residents relying on the airport itself as the primary means of access.

Airlines here

MASwings operates scheduled Twin Otter or ATR turboprop services connecting Long Lellang to Miri and other interior Sarawak destinations.
