Gateway to Siberia's diamond-mining capital.

Opened
1950s
Location
Mirny, Russia
Mirny Airport (IATA: MJZ, ICAO: UERR) serves the city of Mirny in the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), Russia, a remote region known for its vast diamond deposits and the famous Mir mine. The airport is a critical transport link for this isolated city, as road access to Mirny is extremely limited, making air travel the primary means of connection to the rest of Russia. The airport handles scheduled domestic flights, primarily connecting Mirny with major Russian cities such as Moscow and Yakutsk. It also supports operations related to the diamond industry, including charter and cargo flights serving the enterprises of ALROSA, the dominant diamond-mining company headquartered in Mirny.
Terminals
The airport has a single passenger terminal designed to handle the modest traffic volumes of this remote regional hub.
Getting to & from
Ground transport between the airport and Mirny city center is primarily served by taxis and shuttle buses, with no formal rail link.
Airlines here
Yakutia Airlines and Alrosa Airlines (now merged into subsidiary operations) have historically served Mirny, with Nordavia and other Russian carriers providing connections to Moscow and Yakutsk.
Notable facts
  • Mirny is home to ALROSA, one of the world's largest diamond-mining companies, which heavily influences airport traffic.
  • The city of Mirny sits adjacent to the Mir kimberlite pipe, one of the largest open-pit diamond mines ever excavated.
  • Mirny experiences extreme subarctic temperatures, which significantly affect airport operations, especially in winter.
  • Air travel is the dominant mode of long-distance transport for Mirny residents due to the lack of major highway connections.
  • The airport operates in one of the most geographically isolated regions of Russia, deep in eastern Siberia.
