Location

Ust-Nera, Russia

Ust-Nera Airport (IATA: USR, ICAO: UEMT) is a small regional airport serving the settlement of Ust-Nera in the Oymyakonsky District of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), Russia. It provides essential air connectivity to one of the most remote and coldest inhabited regions on Earth, where road access is severely limited and air travel is often the primary means of transport. The airport operates scheduled regional flights connecting Ust-Nera to Yakutsk, the regional capital, and serves as a critical lifeline for local residents, workers in the mining industry, and emergency services. Given its location in extreme northeastern Siberia, the airport must operate under some of the harshest winter conditions in the world, with temperatures regularly dropping below -50°C.
