Buka Airport (BUA) on Buka Island serves as the main air link for the Autonomous Region of Bougainville, handling domestic services primarily to Port Moresby and other Papua New Guinea hubs. The airfield is modest, with local carriers such as PNG Air and Air Niugini operating scheduled flights; facilities are compact so passengers should allow extra time for check-in and luggage handling. Travelers can consult the airport’s online flight board (online flight board) for real-time updates on arrivals (arrivals) and departures (departures). Seasonal charters and inter-island connections are common, so verify schedules before travel.
