Okhotsk Airport guide

Okhotsk Airport (IATA OHO, ICAO UHOO) serves the town of Okhotsk on the Sea of Okhotsk coast in Khabarovsk Krai, in the Russian Far East. It lies about 12 km from the town and is a former military airbase that now handles small transport aircraft. The operator is the federal enterprise Airports of the Far East.

The airport has two parallel runways, both oriented 03/21. The main runway measures 1,780 m by 36 m and is covered with metal panels. A gravel backup runway measures 2,150 m by 75 m. The passenger facility is small, with one check-in counter and two boarding gates. Russian Wikipedia puts annual traffic at about 30,000 passengers in 2021, up from 26,200 in 2020.

Scheduled flying links Okhotsk with Khabarovsk and Nikolayevsk-on-Amur on Khabarovsk Airlines, and with Magadan on IrAero. Helicopters also connect the town with other settlements in Okhotsk District. Services are thin and weather-dependent, so confirm the schedule with the airline before you travel.
