Flights to Kupang
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Kupang is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is El Tari Airport (KOE), 7 km (4 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 8,202 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| El Tari Airport (regional) | KOE | 7 km (4 mi) | 8,202 ft | 335 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 8,202 ft, KOE handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 335 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
