Location

Ban Lung, Cambodia

Ratanakiri Airport (IATA: RBE, ICAO: VDRK) is a small domestic airport serving Ratanakiri Province in northeastern Cambodia, near the provincial capital of Ban Lung. It provides air connectivity to an otherwise remote and mountainous region bordered by Laos and Vietnam. The airport operates limited scheduled domestic services, primarily linking Ratanakiri to Phnom Penh.

Infrastructure at the airport is basic, reflecting the limited traffic volumes and the challenges of operating in a remote highland environment. The runway and facilities are modest, and the airport has historically experienced periods of reduced or suspended service depending on airline operations.
