Marudi Airport guide

Marudi Airport serves Marudi, the administrative centre of the Baram district in the Miri Division of Sarawak. It sits about 1.5 km east of the town centre, roughly a 10-minute walk, at an elevation of 31 m.

The airport has one asphalt runway, 10/28, 998 m long. That length suits small turboprops, and the apron holds up to four de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter aircraft. Scheduled flights are rural air services operated under the federal Public Service Obligation scheme. They link Marudi with Miri and with interior airstrips at Bario, Long Akah, Long Banga, Long Lellang and Long Seridan. The Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia describes Marudi as a secondary hub for the other air bases in the region.

The road from Miri takes about 90 minutes, and the final stretch is rough, so many travellers fly. In 2015 the airport handled 356 tonnes of airfreight alongside its passengers. Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad operates it.
