About Sultan Iskandar Muda International Airport

Wikipedia ↗

Sultan Iskandar Muda International Airport, formerly known as Blangbintang Airport, is an international airport serving Banda Aceh, the capital of Aceh Province in Indonesia. While it primarily serves Banda Aceh, the airport is not located within the city itself; it lies in Aceh Besar Regency, approximately 13.5 km southeast of the city center. The airport is named in honor of Sultan Iskandar Muda (1583-1636), the twelfth ruler of the Aceh Sultanate, who reigned from 1607 to 1636 and is recognized as a national hero of Indonesia. As the main air gateway to Banda Aceh and the broader Aceh region, the airport plays a vital role in regional connectivity. It offers regular domestic flights to major cities such as Jakarta and Medan, and maintains international routes to Kuala Lumpur and Penang in Malaysia
