Airport guide

Buka Airport (AYBK) is a medium airport in Buka Island, Papua New Guinea. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code AYBK or IATA code BUA. It sits in Oceania.

Buka Airport is a regional commercial airport that doubles as a busy private-aviation base. Operators benefit from full instrument approaches and an FBO infrastructure scaled for regular jet traffic, often without the congestion of the nearest major hub.

Buka Airport sits near sea level at 11 ft.

Local operations run on Pacific/Bougainville. Scheduled airline service is light enough that it rarely interferes with charter movements, though planners should still expect to coordinate with the handling agent for international turnarounds.
