Location

Neryungri, Russia

Chulman Airport, designated by IATA code NER and ICAO code UELL, is a regional airport located near the town of Chulman, serving Neryungri in the Sakha Republic (Yakutia) of Russia. It provides essential air connectivity for a region where road and rail access is limited and seasonal conditions can be extreme. The airport supports both passenger and cargo operations, primarily linking Neryungri to major Russian cities. It is particularly important to the local coal-mining industry centered in the South Yakutia basin.

Given the harsh subarctic climate, the airport is equipped to handle cold-weather operations year-round. Its infrastructure reflects the demands of serving a remote industrial community in one of Russia's most challenging environments.
