H.A.S. Hanandjoeddin International Airport (IATA: TJQ, ICAO: WIKT), formerly known as Buluh Tumbang Airport, is the main airport serving Tanjung Pandan, the largest town on Belitung Island in the Bangka Belitung Islands province of Indonesia. Named after Haji Ahmad Sanusi Hanandjoeddin, a pioneer of the Indonesian Air Force from Belitung and a former regent of Belitung Regency, it is the island’s only airport and the primary gateway for air travel. The airport currently offers domestic flights to Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, and Pangkal Pinang, the provincial capital. It previously operated international flights to Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia and Singapore, but these services were terminated during the COVID-19 pandemic and the airport’s international status was revoked in 2024. However, its international status was reinstated in 2025.

In addition to serving as a commercial airport, the airport is also the site of the H.A.S. Hanandjoeddin Air Force Base, a Type C facility of the Indonesian Air Force.
