Airport contact
Opened March 2013 on Ishigaki's eastern Shiraho coast as the Yaeyama Islands' main air gateway, replacing the old in-town Ishigaki Airport whose 1,500m runway (now closed) could not take widebody or larger jet traffic. On 7 August 2025 Okinawa Prefecture formally shortened the airport's registered name from 'New Ishigaki Airport' to 'Ishigaki Airport,' judging enough time had passed since opening for no confusion with the old field; it continues to trade under its long-standing nickname 'Painushima Ishigaki Airport' ('the southern island's Ishigaki Airport' in the local Yaeyama dialect) and is still widely referenced internationally as 'New Ishigaki.' International service centers on Taiwan (China Airlines and Tigerair Taiwan to Taipei-Taoyuan, plus Kaohsiung) and seasonal Hong Kong flights on HK Express; Korean service (Jin Air to Seoul-Incheon) has also operated seasonally in recent years and should be checked against the current published schedule. FY2025 (Apr 2025-Mar 2026) provisional traffic of 2,926,567 passengers (national rank 17) is up from FY2024's confirmed 2,683,116; treat the FY2025 figure as provisional pending JCAB's/MLIT's final annual airport table.
