Gateway to the remote Goto Islands of Nagasaki Prefecture.

Opened

Location
Goto, Japan
Fukue Airport (IATA: FUJ, ICAO: RJFE) is a small regional airport located on Fukue Island, the largest of the Goto Islands in Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan. It serves as the primary air link connecting the Goto archipelago to mainland Japan, particularly to Nagasaki and Fukuoka. The airport plays a vital role in the accessibility of the Goto Islands, a chain known for its scenic coastlines, hidden Christian heritage sites, and traditional fishing culture. The islands were recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site area in 2018 as part of the Hidden Christian Sites in the Nagasaki Region. Given the island's relative remoteness, air travel provides a significantly faster alternative to ferry services from the mainland, making the airport an essential piece of infrastructure for both residents and tourists.
Terminals
Fukue Airport operates a single small terminal building suitable for the low passenger volumes typical of a remote island regional airport.
Getting to & from
Buses and taxis connect the airport to Fukue city center and the ferry terminal, which is the main hub for inter-island transport.
Airlines here
Japan Airlines subsidiary Oriental Air Bridge (ORC) operates scheduled services connecting Fukue to Nagasaki and Fukuoka.
