From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stevanus Rumbewas Airport (IATA: ZRI, ICAO: WABO) (Indonesian: Bandar Udara Stevanus Rumbewas) is an airport serving the town of Serui and the nearby towns and islands in the Yapen Islands Regency, Papua, Indonesia. The airport commenced operation on 19 December 2014, replacing the old Sudjarwo Tjondronegoro Airport which has been closed due to the lack of land for expansion to cope with the increasing passenger demands.[1] The airport is named after Stevanus Rumbewas, a former Indonesian Navy officer who originated from Serui,[2] and member of Indonesian Irian Independence Party (PKII).[3]
