Milingimbi

Milingimbi Airport, established around the mid-20th century, is a small single‑terminal airstrip serving the remote Indigenous community on Milingimbi Island in Australia’s Northern Territory. Though compact, the airport is vital for passenger services, medical evacuations and freight to Arnhem Land, with short scheduled flights and regular charter links to Darwin and nearby regional centres; ground access is limited so most visitors arrive by air or boat. Facilities are basic but functional, and you’ll find services geared to local needs rather than tourism. Because it serves a remote area, fares can be higher than mainland routes, and the field is commonly used by regional carriers, charters and the Royal Flying Doctor Service rather than as a hub.
