Macau Airport

The Macau International Airport is the only airport in the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China. It uses the IATA airport code MFM and ICAO airport code VMMC.

Macau Airport's runway was built on a strip of reclaimed land in the sea, adjacent to Taipa Island, where the main terminal and air traffic control facilities are located. The runway is connected to the apron by two bridges.

Despite its small physical size, Macau Airport is capable of handling Boeing 747s, which form a vital freight link between local manufacturers and overseas markets.

Macau International Airport is also the hub for international carrier Air Macau and helicopter operator East Asia Airlines, as well as the main operations base for the JetAsia air charter company.

The Macau Airport is a common transfer point for people traveling between the People's Republic of China and Taiwan, and is also one of the only world airports with direct flights to North Korea.
