The Most Dangerous (And Expensive) Airports Ever Built

38. Tioman Airport – Malaysia

Year of construction: 1980
Risk factors: Dimensions

This airport is so small that there is only one runway, and the planes that use it can only move in one direction. In addition to that risk factor, the uneven terrain on which the track is built makes it difficult for pilots to maneuver.

There is currently only one airline with regular flights to Tioman, and the planes it uses are small, due to the size of the airport runway. As there are very few passengers on each aircraft, the seats are usually quite high-priced. But, it is not very easy to sell them, and that has caused financial problems for the airline.
