H. Asan Airport (IATA: SMQ, ICAO: WAGS) is a domestic airport serving the town of Sampit, the capital of East Kotawaringin Regency in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. Located approximately 6 kilometers northeast of the town center, along the left bank of the Mentaya River, it serves as the primary gateway to Sampit and the surrounding East Kotawaringin Regency. The airport is named after Haji Asan, a local resident who formerly owned the land and donated it to the government for airport development. Air traffic at H. Asan Airport remains limited. Currently, only one airline—NAM Air, a subsidiary of the Sriwijaya Air Group—operates regular flights, offering connections to major Indonesian cities such as Jakarta, Semarang, and Surabaya. In the past, the airport was also served by Citilink and Wings Air, though both carriers have since discontinued operations to Sampit.
