Mozes Kilangin Airport (IATA: TIM, ICAO: WAYY old: WABP) is located in Timika, Central Papua, Indonesia.

History

The airport was built in mid-1969 and inaugurated in 1971. It serves domestic flights only.

The airport was the site of a mass shooting on 15 April 1996 by a member of Kopassus Sec. Lt. Sanurip. The shooting killed 16 people and injured 11 others.

On 18 July 2008, Minister of Transportation Jusman Syafii Djamal inaugurated upgrading of Mozes Kilangin Airport's status to an international airport.

On 9 October 2008, at around 10:00 a.m. WIT, Merpati Nusantara Airlines Flight MZ-835 experienced a tire burst while landing at Mozes Kilangin Airport as it was on its transit from Jayapura to Jakarta via Biak and Makassar. No personnel were injured in the incident.

International flight

In July 2008, Indonesian charter airline Airfast Indonesia operated a weekly international flight to Cairns. This service was discontinued in October 2016.
