Malacca International Airport uses the IATA code MKZ and the ICAO code WMKM.
It is also called Melaka International Airport and was formerly known as Batu Berendam Airport, after the area where it is located.
The airport is in Batu Berendam, on the outskirts of Melaka city and a short drive from the historic centre.
Scoot operates flights between Melaka and Singapore Changi Airport on several days each week.
The flight to Singapore takes under an hour, around 50 minutes.
Its runway is used by narrow-body jets such as the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737.
Taxis and ride-hailing cars are the easiest way to reach Jonker Street and the heritage area, which is a short drive from the terminal.
For a wider choice of routes, many travellers use Kuala Lumpur International Airport, about two hours away by road.
Malacca International Airport, also known as Melaka International Airport and formerly Batu Berendam Airport, serves the historic state of Melaka on Malaysia's west coast. It is a small regional airport with a single terminal, and it handles narrow-body jets such as the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737.
The airport is in Batu Berendam, on the edge of Melaka city. The drive to the heritage centre around Jonker Street and Dutch Square is short, which makes flying in a quick way to start a city break.
The terminal is compact, with the essentials you need before a short flight: check-in counters, a small choice of food and drink, and car hire desks. Queues are rarely long because of the low number of flights.
Arriving by air also spares you the road journey from Kuala Lumpur or the Singapore border, which can be slow at weekends and on public holidays. For many visitors from Singapore, the short hop is the simplest way to reach the city.
Scheduled service here is limited. Scoot, the low-cost arm of Singapore Airlines, operates flights between Melaka and Singapore Changi on several days a week, with a flight time of under an hour. Routes at Malacca have changed often over the years, so check current schedules before planning a trip.
Taxis wait outside the terminal, and ride-hailing apps are widely used in Melaka. Rental cars are another option if you plan to explore the wider state or drive on towards Kuala Lumpur.
Melaka's historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site shared with George Town. Highlights include the red Dutch buildings of Stadthuys, the ruins of A Famosa, the Jonker Street night market and the Melaka River walk.
Because flights are few, Malacca is best for trips on the Singapore route. For wider connections, many travellers use Kuala Lumpur International Airport, around two hours' drive away.
