Wakkanai Airport
Wakkanai Airport is an airport located 10 km east southeast of Wakkanai, Hokkaido, Japan. Wakkanai is the northernmost airport in Japan that is capable of handling jet aircraft; due to its small size, it is susceptible to closures during the coldest winter months due to heavy snowfall and winds, in which case incoming aircraft are often diverted to Asahikawa Airport.
