Stevanus Rumbewas Airport (ZRI)

Stevanus Rumbewas Airport (ZRI) is a regional domestic facility located on Yapen Island in Papua, Indonesia. As the primary aerial link for the town of Serui, the airport focuses on domestic turboprop flights, primarily connecting to Jayapura (DJJ) and Biak (BIK) via carriers like Trigana Air and Wings Air. Because the airport does not host scheduled international flights, 'connecting' at ZRI typically involves transitioning from a regional flight to local ground transport. The facility operates through a single, modern terminal building where all passenger functions—including check-in, security, and baggage collection—are integrated into a compact area, ensuring that the physical transit from aircraft to the terminal exit is immediate. Security and passenger processing follow standard Indonesian domestic aviation protocols. All travelers must present valid identification, and luggage is subject to basic screening by airport authorities. It is recommended to arrive at the terminal at least 90 minutes before your scheduled departure, as manual check-in processes for regional flights can take time. International travelers must clear all customs and immigration formalities at a major Indonesian gateway, such as Jakarta (CGK) or Jayapura (DJJ), before proceeding to Serui on a domestic leg. Ground logistics should be arranged in advance, as on-demand taxi services at the terminal can be limited. Most visitors coordinate with local contacts or their accommodation in Serui for pickups. Terminal amenities are functional but limited, so travelers should carry their own food and essentials for any wait. Always verify your flight status directly with the carrier before heading to the airfield, as regional schedules in Papua are highly susceptible to changes based on local weather conditions and aircraft availability.
