Bathurst Island Airport (IATA: BRT, ICAO: YBTI) is an airport located at Wurrumiyanga, on the southeast coast of Bathurst Island, in the Northern Territory of Australia.

The airport has a sealed runway, which is 1,470 m × 30 m (4,823 ft × 98 ft), making it unsuitable for larger commercial jets. However, there are regular, smaller commercial tours to the island. Bathurst Island Airport is 80 km (50 mi) from Darwin International Airport.

## History

[edit]

The Royal Australian Air Force utilised the airfield during World War II. The original airfield is now the public cemetery with the newer strip located 2 kilometres west.
