Morioka Hanamaki Airport (盛岡花巻空港, Hanamaki Kūkō) or Iwate-Hanamaki Airport (IATA: HNA, ICAO: RJSI) is a regional airport located 6 km (3.7 mi) north-northeast[2] of the city of Hanamaki, Iwate Prefecture, in the Tohoku region of northern Japan.

History

Hanamaki Airport opened in 1964 with a 1200-meter runway, which was extended to 2000 meters in 1983. On 4 April 2009, a new terminal building was opened on the opposite side of the runway, replacing the now-defunct old terminal building that is situated next to Route 4. Due to this change, Nitanai Station became the nearest train station to the terminal building; however, there is no bus or taxi service at that station, and Hanamaki-Kūkō Station remains the most convenient for access.

gollark: I don't mean change C accordingly, I mean don't propagate the mistake to new languages.

gollark: A byte, i.e. "foolish ASCII or extended ASCII character", should just be `byte` or `u8` or something.

gollark: Unicode should be the default, and something should not be named `char` if it cannot actually hold a character.

gollark: Just because many old languages do the char-is-byte thing doesn't make it not stupid and harmful in this era of unicode.

gollark: Wrong and bad. A char should be a !!CODEPOINT!!.
