Myeik Airport — Mkeik, Myanmar

Myeik Airport (MGZ) serves Myeik, a coastal city in southern Myanmar's Tanintharyi Region, historically known by its colonial-era name Mergui. The airport connects this remote southern peninsula to Yangon, supporting a local economy built on fishing, pearl cultivation, and increasingly, tourism to the nearby Mergui Archipelago, a cluster of hundreds of largely undeveloped islands popular with divers and sailors. MGZ's infrastructure remains modest, consistent with the region's relative isolation from Myanmar's central plains, and overland travel to Myeik is notably slower and more difficult than flying. As archipelago tourism has grown, MGZ has taken on increasing importance as the primary air gateway to one of Southeast Asia's least developed but most scenic coastal regions.
