History[edit]
During World War II, the airfield was called RAF Mingaladon and served as an operating base for fighter aircraft such as:
- No. 60 Squadron RAF from February 1941 to February 1942 flying Bristol Blenheim I
- 67-я эскадрилья RAF с октября 1941 по март 1942 года на самолетах Brewster F2A Buffalo и Hawker Hurricane II.
- № 135 эскадрильи RAF с января по февраль 1942 г. на самолетах Hawker Hurricane II.
- № 681-й эскадрильи Королевских ВВС с июня по сентябрь 1945 г. на Супермарине Спитфайр.
- 3-я эскадрилья 1-й американской добровольческой группы ( Flying Tigers ) китайских ВВС на самолетах Curtiss P-40
Также был организован полет связи добровольческих ВВС Бирмы, оснащенных « Тигровыми мотыльками» и « Вестлендскими лизандерами», а зенитная поддержка аэродрома обеспечивалась членами 12-го полка Бирманских стрелков.
Mingaladon was then used by the Japanese, and Japanese bombers based in Bangkok were moved forward to Mingaladon when there was a full moon. The British at the Wireless Experimental Centre in Delhi were breaking BULBUL the IJA air-to-ground code, and could predict Japanese air raids. On one occasion Allied nightfighters "got the lot and all night we could hear Mingaladon air base calling for its lost children".[2]
Additional units;
- Air Headquarters Burma Communication Squadron RAF[3]
- Air Headquarters Burma Communication Flight RAF[3]
- Air Headquarters Netherlands East Indies Communication Squadron RAF[4]
- No. 221 Group Communication Squadron RAF[5]
After World War II, Yangon Airport was built on the former RAF Mingaladon in 1947 by the Calcutta Metropolitan Airports Authority. Once regarded as the best in Southeast Asia and the primary airport serving that region, the airport fell into disrepair and remained that way for decades, as new superhubs like Singapore Changi Airport, Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport and Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta were built and superseded Yangon's facilities.
Airport capacity was boosted to 6 million passengers per year in early 2016. Currently, there are plans to build a completely new and larger airport, Hanthawaddy International Airport, on a much larger site and somewhat away from Yangon.
Modernization[edit]
A modernization program was launched in April 2003 and resulted in a new terminal and an extended 3414 m runway.[6]
Designed by the Airport Development Division of CPG Corporation of Singapore, a new terminal was constructed at a cost of US$13.3 million by Asia World.[7] It can handle 900 arriving and 900 departing passengers simultaneously.[8] The design meets IATA service standards and complies with ICAO safety and security standards at a cost of SG$30 million. Other notable features include:
- Separate floors for arriving and departing passengers to lessen congestion
- Automated baggage handling system with an integrated check-in system
- Four air bridges, capable of handling four Boeing 747s
- Special lounges for use by government officials and business people
- A two-story parking garage with spaces for 340 vehicles
In June 2011, the government announced plans to expand the airport by 40% and increase its capacity from 2.7 million passengers to 3.8 million passengers annually.[9] The airport was already over its annual capacity of 2.7 million passengers, having accepted 3.1 million in 2012[10] and 4 million in 2014.[11] To fulfill this increased demand, new international and domestic terminals are being constructed and are expected to be finished end of 2016. After upgrading, Yangon International Airport will be able to service 6 million passengers annually.[11]
In 2013, a contract worth $150 million was awarded to a consortium led by an affiliate of Asia World to construct a new domestic terminal and expansion of airport apron.[10]
The new international terminal (T1) opened in March 2016, with the previously existing international terminal being designated as T2. The new domestic terminal (T3) opened on December 5, 2016.
Terminals[edit]

Terminal 1[edit]
In August 2014, the old domestic terminal was demolished and construction began for the new six-story Terminal 1 which will handle international flights. The opening ceremony was held on March 12, 2016. After the opening of Terminal 1, the airport can handle 6 million passengers annually, as opposed to 2.7 million before.
Terminal 2[edit]
After the opening of Terminal 1, the former International Terminal was renamed "Terminal 2." The building was designed by the CPG Corporation of Singapore and constructed by the Asia World Company costing US$13.3 million. The terminal can handle 900 arriving passengers and 900 departing passengers at the same time. Terminal 2 was closed in July 2018 to undergo extensive renovation. All international flights now operate from Terminal 1.
Terminal 3[edit]
Terminal 3, which is used for domestic flights, opened on December 5, 2016, replacing the old domestic terminal which was demolished in August 2014.
Guard of Honour Building (VIP Terminal)[edit]
The former VIP terminal was temporarily used as the domestic terminal until Terminal 3 was completed. The Guard of Honour Building has been demolished to make way for a connector between Terminals 1 and 2.
