Rendani Airport (MKW) serves Manokwari, the capital of West Papua Province (Papua Barat) in Indonesia. Set on the shore of Doreri Bay, the airport is the main air link between Manokwari and other cities across Papua and the rest of the country. Its history goes back to the Second World War, when the airfield was first built, and it has been upgraded several times since.
The airport lies just a few kilometres from central Manokwari. Expect a trip of roughly 3 to 6 km, depending on where in town you are heading, so the transfer is usually short.
Rendani has a single passenger terminal with check-in counters, a departure lounge and basic food and drink outlets. The runway has been extended, allowing it to handle narrow-body jets such as the Boeing 737 and Airbus A320.
Airlines serving Rendani include Batik Air and Super Air Jet, which link Manokwari with cities such as Makassar, Sorong and Jayapura, and Wings Air, which runs turboprop flights to smaller towns in the region. Makassar is a common connecting point for onward travel to Jakarta and other parts of Indonesia. Pioneer operators also fly light aircraft to remote communities. Routes change from time to time, so check the current schedule before you plan.
Mansinam Island, a short boat ride across the bay, is a significant site in the history of Christianity in Papua. Pasir Putih beach offers a relaxed spot for swimming close to town. Nature lovers head into the Arfak Mountains, known for birdwatching and cool highland scenery.
Flights to smaller Papuan towns often use turboprops or light aircraft with stricter baggage limits, so check your allowance. Weather in the region can cause delays, so avoid planning tight same-day connections where you can.
