Adisoemarmo International Airport
Encyclopaedia

Adisoemarmo International Airport is an international airport serving Surakarta, the second-largest city in Central Java, Indonesia, as well as the surrounding areas. The airport is actually not located within Surakarta's city limits; it is situated in Boyolali Regency, approximately 14 km north of downtown Surakarta. It serves as the primary airport for Surakarta, as well as the broader Greater Solo region. The airport is named after Adi Soemarmo Wirjokusumo (1921–1947), an Indonesian Air Force officer and national hero of Indonesia. Adisumarmo Airport primarily offers flights to Jakarta, with additional services to other major cities such as Denpasar. The airport previously operated international routes to Kuala Lumpur and Singapore, but these were suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Owing to the continued absence of regular international traffic, its international status was officially revoked in 2024, before being reinstated the following year.
