Location
Rengat, Indonesia
Japura Airport, designated by IATA code RGT and ICAO code WIBJ, serves the city of Rengat on the island of Sumatra, Indonesia. It is located in the Indragiri Hulu Regency of Riau Province and functions as a regional airport connecting the area to larger Indonesian cities.
