Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Bintulu is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Bintulu Airport (BTU), 5 km (3 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,006 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bintulu Airport (regional) | BTU | 5 km (3 mi) | 9,006 ft | 74 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,006 ft, BTU handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 74 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
