Hpa-N Airport (IATA: PAA, ICAO: VYPA) is a small domestic airfield serving Hpa-An (also spelled Hpa-N), the capital of Kayin State in southeastern Myanmar. It sits roughly 5–10 km east of the town center, near the Thanlwin River and the karst mountains around Mount Zwegabin. The airport has limited facilities and irregular or no scheduled commercial service, so most travelers reach Hpa-An by road.
💡 Local Tip
If you're flying in, ask your driver to stop at the Lumbini Garden and Kawgun Cave on the way into town—they're near the airport side of Hpa-An and make an easy first stop before hotel check-in.
🚖 Getting There
The airport is a short drive from Hpa-An town center; take a taxi or motorbike taxi from the terminal or arrange a hotel pickup in advance. There is no reliable public bus service, so confirm your return ride or keep a local driver's number. Allow extra time in the rainy season, when unpaved access roads can be muddy.
