Rabaul Airport
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rabaul Airport, also called Tokua Airport, is an airport servicing Kokopo and Rabaul in Papua New Guinea (IATA: RAB, ICAO: AYRB).
Prior to the 1994 volcanic eruption that destroyed the town of Rabaul, the airport was located at the foot of Tavurvur volcano, near Matupit island. The airport was destroyed by the eruption, and subsequently the new airport was built and opened at Tokua, on the opposite side of the Rabaul caldera.
A volcano eruption closed the airport for a day in 2006.[1]
