About Kinmen Airport

Kinmen Airport (Chinese: 金門機場) (IATA: KNH, ICAO: RCBS), commonly known as the Shangyi Airport (Chinese: 尚義機場), is a civilian airport serving Kinmen, Fuchien Province, Republic of China. It is located at Jinhu Township of Kinmen County. It was authorized to become a C-class airport under the direct supervision of the Civil Aeronautics Administration, Ministry of Transportation and Communications of the Executive Yuan. It serves an average of 1.2 million passengers every year.

With the direct Cross-Strait flights between mainland China and Taiwan being expensive compared to domestic fares for each side respectively, this makes travel via Kinmen with an hourly short thirty-minute ferry ride to Xiamen's Wutong Ferry Terminal, close to Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport, very popular. Check-in facilities for Kinmen Airport flights exists within the Wutong Ferry Terminal to assist in travel from the mainland to Taiwan.
