Airport contact
Myanmar's secondary international gateway after Yangon (RGN), on a single 4,267m/14,000ft concrete runway billed as the longest in Southeast Asia. Traffic collapsed with COVID and has not recovered to pre-pandemic (2019: 1,814,496 pax) or pre-coup levels; the last full-year figure MJAS has published is 2020's COVID-collapsed 129,973 (down 93% from 2019) — no annual total for 2021 onward has been found, so the 700,000 (2025) shown here is an ESTIMATE, not a reported total. The 28 Mar 2025 Sagaing earthquake (whose severe 6.7 aftershock struck almost directly beneath the airport just 12 minutes after the mainshock) collapsed ceilings in places and damaged the basement; MJAS's own site posted an advisory dated 25 Apr 2025 confirming the airport was "Available Now For Commercial Flight Operations," and later 2025 notices (a Passenger Service Charge revision in May, CIP lounge resumption in December) indicate normal commercial operation resumed, though independent confirmation of full pre-quake service levels was not found.
