, is a third class airport located 1.7NM southwest[2] of Gotō, Nagasaki Prefecture, off the western coast of Kyūshū, Japan. The airport also serves the city of Fukue. It is also known as and, since 2014,[3] also styled Gotō Tsubaki Airport (五島つばき空港).[4] Currently the terminal building's exterior displays both names.[5] Tsubaki means camellia, and is a notable reference on Fukue Island which is famed for producing camellia oil[6] and is home to two ancient camellia trees each over 300 years old[7] [8] that have been declared 'national monuments'[9]
The airport opened in October of 1963. It is located on the largest island in the Goto Islands at the foot of Onidake mountain. The surrounding area is largely cultivated farmland.[10]
A pilot for ANA remarked that the air current can be unfavorable based on the wind direction and thus landing and takeoff from this airport required skill and experience.[11] It is also both the southernmost and westernmost airport serviced by Oriental Air Bridge.
The airport serviced 127,594 people during the 2012 fiscal year [12] and 135,535 during the 2013 fiscal year. [13]
