About Saipan International Airport
Overview
Saipan International Airport serves the Northern Mariana Islands, located in the western Pacific Ocean. Situated at an elevation of 215 feet MSL, the airport provides critical air transportation infrastructure for this remote island region. The airport supports medium-sized aircraft operations with its single 8,700-foot asphalted runway.
Flying Conditions
Statistical data indicates highly favorable visual flight conditions, with 84.5% of observations reporting VFR conditions. Winds predominantly blow from the east at an average of 10.2 knots, with maximum recorded speeds of 22 knots. Temperature ranges between 23°C and 37°C, with an average of 27.7°C, suggesting consistent tropical climate conditions for pilots.
Notable Features
The airport's location at coordinates 15.119000, 145.729004 places it in a Pacific island environment with potential maritime weather influences. The consistently low occurrence of instrument meteorological conditions (IFR/LIFR accounting for only 1.3% of observations) suggests generally stable atmospheric conditions. Visibility averages 9.7 statute miles, with minimal instances of restricted visibility.
Approach Considerations
Runway 07/25 benefits from highly favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and an average crosswind of only 3.5 knots. December, October, and September represent the most consistent VFR months for aviation operations. Pilots can expect reliable visual conditions and minimal wind-related approach complications.
