Mathilda Batlayeri Airport is a domestic airport serving Saumlaki, the capital and largest town of Tanimbar Islands Regency in the Tanimbar Islands, Maluku, Indonesia. It is named after Mathilda Batlayeri, a heroine from the Tanimbar Islands who was killed in South Kalimantan in 1953 while fighting the Darul Islam rebel movement. The airport commenced operations in May 2014, replacing the former Olilit Airport, which was located near Saumlaki town center but could not be expanded further due to land constraints. Situated in Tumbur Village, Wer Tamrian District, approximately 14 km from the Saumlaki town center, the airport serves as the primary gateway to Saumlaki and the Tanimbar Islands. The airport offers scheduled flights to Ambon, the provincial capital and largest city of Maluku, operated by Wings Air, as well as pioneer routes to Larat and Tiakur, operated by Smart Aviation.
