Common Complaints
  • Weather-Related Delays and Turbulence: One recent traveler reported a 5-hour flight delay and intense turbulence due to bad weather, noting that the airport is a "visual landing airfield" with potential limitations during adverse conditions.
  • No Night-Landing Facility: The airport currently operates with no night-landing facility, which can limit flight schedules and operational flexibility.
  • Limited Public Transport Options: Beyond taxis and auto-rickshaws, public transportation options are described as "somewhat limited" in the broader Tezu area.

Tezu Airport serves as a vital gateway to Arunachal Pradesh, offering a comfortable and efficient travel experience, especially since its recent upgrades.
