Pangkor Airport (IATA: PKG, ICAO: WMPA) is an airport on Pangkor Island, Manjung District, Perak, Malaysia.

The airport is complemented by Sitiawan Airport located in the mainland.

History

In 1970, the Perak state government studied a site for an airstrip, located near the government rest house at Pasir Bogak. The 2,500 feet (760 m) airstrip would be used by light aircraft and helicopters.

Plans to construct the airport – then only an airstrip – was announced in 1984.

The airport was expected to be completed in July 1992, but was delayed to January 1993.

Technical defects on the airstrip was discovered in May 1993, delaying the airport's opening to June. At that time, the airstrip could only fit the 12-seater Donnier and Twin Otter.
