Fukuoka Airport - FUK - is an international and domestic
airport. Fukuoka
Airport is located with great area of Fukuoka in Hakata Ward.
Fukuoka Airport (Japanese: 福岡空港) is an international
and domestic airport in Fukuoka,
Japan. Its IATA Airport Code is FUK. It is currently operating at full capacity,
and cannot be further expanded. Flights stop at 10 pm.
The airport is conveniently located for Fukuoka residents in Hakata
Ward, South-East of the city centre. It is connected to the rest of
the city by subway and road, and a subway from the airport to the
business district takes less than ten minutes.
With Fukuoka's expanding role as a hub for business and travel in East
Asia, Fukuoka City is considering moving the
airport further inland or to an offshore artificial island to
accommodate increased traffic. However there is some debate as to
whether a new airport is really needed, given the cost, the
environmental problems and the nearby New Kitakyushu Airport which is
now under construction.
