Tjilik Riwut Airport, formerly Panarung Airport, is a domestic airport serving Palangkaraya, the capital city of Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. Located approximately 4.5 km from the center of Palangkaraya, the airport is named after Anakletus Tjilik Riwut (1918–1987), an Indonesian Air Force officer and politician of Dayak Ngaju descent. He served as the second governor of Central Kalimantan and is recognized as a national hero of Indonesia. As the largest and busiest airport in Central Kalimantan, it serves as the primary gateway to Palangkaraya and one of the main points of entry to the province. The airport offers regular flights to major Indonesian cities such as Jakarta, Semarang, and Surabaya, and also connects to remote areas in the interior of Kalimantan.
