Lanyu Airport — Orchid Island, Taiwan

Lanyu Airport lies on Orchid Island, a small volcanic island off the southeastern coast of Taiwan in Taitung County, home to the indigenous Tao people. At an elevation of about 44 feet, it has a single concrete runway near 3,852 feet, handling the light aircraft that connect the island to Taitung on Taiwan's main island. Orchid Island is known for its distinctive Tao culture, traditional boats, and rugged coastal scenery, drawing visitors alongside the local traffic. Given the island's isolation across the sea, air service and ferries are the only ways to reach it. The KYD code identifies this small field, a lifeline and a gateway for one of Taiwan's most culturally distinct offshore islands.
