  • Limited Airside Facilities: Beyond security, particularly for international flights, there are reports of very few terminal facilities, food, and retail services.

Miri Airport offers a functional and generally clean experience for travelers, especially considering its role as a regional hub. However, its current capacity limitations lead to substantial discomfort during busy periods, highlighting the urgent need for its ongoing expansion and modernization, which is scheduled to be completed by 2028.
