Goroka Airport — Goronka, Papua New Guinea

GKA is the code for Goroka Airport, which serves Goroka, the capital of Eastern Highlands Province in Papua New Guinea. Situated at a relatively high elevation in a mountainous, densely populated agricultural region known for coffee production, Goroka's airport is a critical link given the country's rugged terrain and limited road networks. GKA connects the highlands to Port Moresby and other domestic destinations, supporting trade, missionary work, and government travel across a region where overland transport is often impractical. The airport is also known for hosting travelers attending the Goroka Show, a well-known cultural festival showcasing Papua New Guinea's diverse highland tribes, which draws visitors from across the country and abroad each year.
