Kengtung Airport — Kengtung, Myanmar

Kengtung Airport (KET) serves Kengtung, a historic town in Myanmar's eastern Shan State near the borders of Thailand, Laos, and China, in the region known as the Golden Triangle. The airport has a single runway and mainly handles domestic flights connecting Kengtung to Yangon and Mandalay via smaller carriers. Kengtung itself is known for its Buddhist temples, hill tribe communities, and colonial-era British administrative history. KET's remote, mountainous location and Myanmar's periodic airspace and political restrictions mean flight schedules can be irregular, and the airport primarily functions to link this isolated eastern Shan region to the rest of the country.
