Flights to Nay Pyi Taw
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Nay Pyi Taw is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Nay Pyi Taw International Airport (NYT), 15 km (9 mi) from the centre, whose 12,000-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nay Pyi Taw International Airport | NYT | 15 km (9 mi) | 12,000 ft | 302 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 12,000 ft, NYT can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 302 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
