Roman Tmetuchl International Airport is the main airport of Palau. It is located just north of Airai on Babelthuap island. The airport is 6 miles from Koror and 15 miles from Melekeok.
A resolution adopted by the Senate of Palau in May 2006 renamed Palau International Airport as the Roman Tmetuchl International Airport, in honor of late local politician and businessman Roman Tmetuchl. It is also known as Babelthuap/Koror Airport or Airai Airport.
