Ampana airport finally served daily by Wings Air!

Posted in Lion Air, Transportation, Travel destinations, On 24/10/2016 0 Comments

There are now daily flights to/from Ampana, operated by Wings Air (Lion Air branch)!

Since October 12, 2016, you can fly directly between Ampana and 2 cities in Central Sulawesi: Luwuk and Palu. These flights also allow you to take connecting flights from/to bigger Sulawesi cities: Makassar (Ujung Pandang) or Manado. And from/to big Indonesian cities: Denpasar or Jakarta.

UPDATE FEBRUARY 2020 : The flight route Palu – Ampana is now closed. The closest airports to Ampana are Poso and Luwuk. Feel free to check out our Directions page, where you’ll find all the details you need (flights, boats) to reach the Togean Islands. We also recommend you download our PDF access guidebook, available, among others, from our Directions page, or via a popup window that displays on your first visit.

UPDATE MARCH 2017: Unfortunately the direct flights between Luwuk and Ampana have been canceled due to low number of passengers.
