North Korea's main gateway, with very limited international service

Sunan is North Korea's primary international airport, about 24 km north of central Pyongyang.

Frequently asked questions

Which airlines fly from Pyongyang Sunan?
Air Koryo, North Korea's flag carrier, operates almost all flights from FNJ. Historically Air China has also served Pyongyang to Beijing. Other foreign carriers do not normally serve the airport, and schedules can change without notice depending on political and travel conditions.
How far is FNJ from central Pyongyang?
Pyongyang Sunan International Airport sits about 24 kilometres north of the city centre. Authorised visitors are usually transferred by official ground transport rather than public taxi or train. Allow roughly 30-40 minutes for the drive in light traffic, longer during organised tour group movements.
Can I book FNJ flights on Flightmussy?
You can search FNJ on Flightmussy and see whatever inventory Google Flights and our partners surface, but actual bookings to North Korea are heavily restricted by sanctions and tour rules. Most travellers must arrange flights through an authorised tour operator rather than directly with the airline.
What is the cheapest month to fly to Pyongyang?
Inventory is so limited that pricing patterns are unreliable, but the shoulder months of April-May and September-October typically show the most consistent Air Koryo schedules. Use the Flightmussy 12-month fare heatmap to spot the rare weeks where seats are actually available and priced.
