Civilian and government flights rarely route through this airport. In total, there are 13 permanent staff at Anisakhan airport. A total of 22 civilian and military flights landed in 2019. Total airport area is 459.82 acres. The airport is located 21 km away from Pyin Oo Lwin and 54 KM away from Mandalay downtown. Since the airport is approximately a 1-hour drive from Mandalay, it could be a suitable location for a humanitarian cargo hub or open space for temporary shelters, in case of a large-scale emergency such as earthquake in Mandalay region. If there is a need to use this airport for humanitarian purposes, approval would need to be obtained from the Department of Civil Aviation in Yangon.
