Noto Airport
Noto Airport (Noto Kūkō) is a small domestic airport on the Noto Peninsula in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. It is about 11.9 km south-southeast of the city of Wajima. The airport's codes are IATA: NTQ and ICAO: RJNW. It is marketed as Noto Satoyama Airport and is also unofficially known as Wajima Airport.
The terminal is four stories tall and has two jetways. Noto Airport is classified as a third-class airport in Japan. It opened on July 7, 2003, and was built as a new greenfield airport rather than replacing an existing facility.
In its early days, All Nippon Airways (ANA) agreed to operate two daily flights under an occupancy guarantee program. The Ishikawa Prefecture would compensate ANA if occupancy fell below 70% and gross ticket sales were under 200 million yen; if occupancy exceeded targets, ANA would repay the excess to the prefecture.
Runway: 07/25, length 2,000 meters (6,562 feet), surface asphalt concrete. Elevation: 219 meters (718 feet).
In 2015, the airport served about 156,374 passengers, had 3,299 aircraft movements, and handled 7 metric tonnes of cargo.
After the Noto earthquake on January 1, 2024, the airport was temporarily closed.
