New Tanegashima Airport (??????, Shin Tanegashima K?k?) (IATA: TNE, ICAO: RJFG), also known as Tanegashima Airport, is located in Nakatane, on Tanegashima, one of the ?sumi Islands in southern Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan. The original Tanegashima Airport was opened on 27 July 1962, at a site approximately 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) southeast of the present airport. Although its runway was extended from 1,000 m (3,300 ft) to 1,500 m (4,900 ft) in 1973, it was not suitable to handle jet aircraft, and was closed on 16 March 2006, the day that the New Tanegashima Airport, with a 2,000 m (6,600 ft) runway, was opened.
