Mount Hagen Airport
Kagamuga International Airport  is the second biggest airport in Papua New Guinea (PNG) and is located in the Waghi Valley, 13 km north-east of Mount Hagen, the capital of Western Highlands Province of Papua New Guinea. The airport has one terminal and two runways, and is operated by its owner, National Airports Corporation of Papua New Guinea. History
Kagamuga Airport was built in 1934. It was used by missionaries and the Australian administration for air service to Mount Hagen. It was renovated during World War II. The airport underwent a renovation starting in 2013. Constructed at a low level, the pre-existing terminal building was exposed to a water drainage problem and regularly got affected by waterlogging. The reconstruction fell into the scope of the Civil Aviation Development Investment Program (CADIP) aimed to increase the safety, accessibility and reliability of the airports in PNG. The Government of PNG and the Asian Development Bank (ADB) jointly funded the airport development project. Reconstructed at a cost of approximately PGK 70m (US$23m), the main terminal building reopened in 2015. A local artefact, the Mount Hagen axe, provided inspiration for the design of the newly constructed terminal, with the exteriors shaped like the axe and decorated in traditional patterns. The sewerage treatment system integrated into the construction of the building converts the liquid waste into fertiliser after separating it from the solid waste. In 2018, the airport was closed for two days due to security issues arising after a dispute between guards and a local landowning group. In 2019/2020, the Kagamuga International Airport was used to re-route the flights of Air Niugini from Wapenamanda due to maintenance works at the runways performed by the National Airports Corporation.
