The sole gateway to the world's smallest island nation.

Location
Yaren, Nauru
Nauru International Airport (INU/ANYN) is the only airport serving the Republic of Nauru, a tiny island nation in the central Pacific Ocean. It is one of the few airports in the world serving an entire sovereign country with a single facility, handling all international and domestic aviation needs for the island. The airport features a single runway and modest terminal facilities suited to Nauru's small population of roughly 10,000 people. Air connectivity is limited but essential, as Nauru has no seaport capable of handling regular passenger vessels, making the airport the primary link to the outside world. Nauru International Airport has historically served as a critical hub for regional connectivity, particularly for Nauru Airlines, the national carrier. The airport also plays an important logistical role in supplying the island and supporting the Australian-run offshore immigration processing center that has operated on Nauru.
Terminals
The airport has a single, small passenger terminal with basic facilities reflecting the island's limited air traffic volume.
Getting to & from
Ground transport from the airport consists primarily of taxis and private vehicles, as the airport is located close to Yaren and other districts given Nauru's small size.
Airlines here
Nauru Airlines, the national carrier, is the primary airline operating at the airport, with services connecting Nauru to Brisbane, Fiji, Kiribati, and other Pacific destinations.
