Nay Pyi Taw Airport

Nay Pyi Taw Airport opened in the mid-2000s and operates a single main terminal serving domestic and occasional regional flights, making it a medium-sized gateway to Myanmar’s administrative capital. Strategically located near the government district, the airport is important for officials and tourists heading to nearby attractions, and is usually a short 20–30 minute drive to central Nay Pyi Taw via well-maintained roads. Ground connections include taxis, car hire and limited bus services rather than extensive rail links. Generally affordable for travelers with competitively priced domestic fares, the airport is a base for Myanmar’s domestic carriers, including Myanmar National Airlines and regional operators.
