Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport

Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport , formerly known as Comoro International Airport, is an international airport located in Dili, the capital of East Timor. The airport was renamed after Nicolau dos Reis Lobato, an East Timorese politician and national hero.
History.
Under Portuguese rule, Baucau Airport, which has a much longer runway, was used for international flights, but during Indonesian rule after 1975, it was placed under the control of the Indonesian National Armed Forces, and Dili airport, known as Comoro International Airport, became the territory's principal civilian airport. The airport was placed under the control of the Australian Defence Force during Operation Astute in May 2006.
Dili's airport runway has generally been unable to accommodate aircraft larger than the Airbus A319, Boeing 737-400, Boeing 737-900ER or C-130 Hercules, but in January 2008, the Portuguese charter airline EuroAtlantic Airways operated a direct flight from Lisbon using a Boeing 757, carrying 140 members of the Guarda Nacional Republicana.
More recently during 2020, EuroAtlantic Airways operated flights between Lisbon and Dili using a Boeing 767-300ER, with refuelling stops in Dubai and Kuala Lumpur, to repatriate Portuguese and other European nationals.
