About Fukuoka Airport
Overview
Fukuoka Airport serves as a critical transportation hub for southern Japan, located in the Fukuoka metropolitan area on Kyushu island. The airport operates two parallel runways capable of handling large commercial aircraft, with a total elevation of 32 feet above mean sea level. Its strategic positioning supports both domestic and international aviation operations.
Flying Conditions
Pilots can expect predominantly excellent visual flight conditions, with 94.3% of observations reporting VFR weather. The airport experiences a moderate maritime climate, with temperatures ranging from 0°C to 34°C and an average of 15°C. Wind patterns are consistently from the southeast at an average of 7.8 knots, with maximum recorded speeds of 23 knots and minimal occurrences of calm conditions.
Notable Features
Both runways (16L/34R and 16R/34L) demonstrate consistent wind alignment, with 100% favorable wind conditions and minimal average crosswind at 3.1 knots. The airport's low elevation and coastal location contribute to generally stable meteorological conditions. Visibility consistently remains excellent, with an average of 10 statute miles and extremely rare instances of restricted visibility.
Approach Considerations
September, November, and January represent the most predictable and favorable months for VFR operations. The parallel runway configuration provides operational flexibility, with both runways offering similar wind characteristics. Pilots should anticipate southeast winds and prepare for standard approach procedures aligned with the airport's consistent meteorological profile.
