Flights to Timika
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Timika is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Mozes Kilangin Airport (TIM), 25 km (16 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 7,841 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mozes Kilangin Airport (regional) | TIM | 25 km (16 mi) | 7,841 ft | 103 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 7,841 ft, TIM handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 103 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
