Remote gateway serving Uvs Province in western Mongolia.

Location
Ulaangom, Mongolia
Ulaangom Airport (IATA: ULO, ICAO: ZMUG) is a small domestic airport serving Ulaangom, the capital of Uvs Province in the far west of Mongolia. It provides essential air connectivity for a region where road travel to the capital Ulaanbaatar can take several days across rugged terrain. The airport operates limited scheduled domestic services, primarily connecting Ulaangom with Ulaanbaatar. Given the remote and sparsely populated nature of western Mongolia, the airport handles relatively low passenger volumes and has minimal facilities. As with many regional airports in Mongolia, Ulaangom Airport plays a critical role in supporting local communities, government services, and occasional humanitarian or emergency flights in an area with limited infrastructure.
Terminals
The airport has a single small terminal building with basic passenger facilities.
Getting to & from
Ground transport into Ulaangom city is limited to taxis and private vehicles, as no formal public transit service operates from the airport.
