Marshall Islands International Airport (IATA: MAJ, ICAO: PKMJ, FAA LID: MAJ), also known as Amata Kabua International Airport, is an airport located in Majuro, the capital of the Republic of the Marshall Islands. The airport was built sometime after World War II (1943) and replaced an earlier coral-surfaced airstrip at Dalop Island (eastern end of Majuro Island) built by the occupying Japanese (and their prisoners) in 1942.,
A series of single floor structures (small hangers) makeup the airport terminal. No physical structures existed at the airport prior to the 1970s. The current terminal structure and modern runway/apron were built in 1971. Passengers from flights arriving at the airport use stairs to exit aircraft and walk to the terminal.
The airport is capable of handling all propeller driven aircraft, turboprop, business jets and small to mid size jet aircraft (e.g., Boeing 737, Boeing 727), but it can handle Boeing 767.
