Hasanuddin International Airport (WAAA)

Pilot Information
Departures out of Darwin will be expected to fly the JULIE5 departure off of the chosen runway at Darwin, departing between 0800z and 1000z. Alternatively, pilots may request the DN5 departure, however this should only be used if absolutely necessary. Due to Darwin's unique taxiway layout pilots are advised that extra fuel may be required for ground delays. Extra fuel is also highly recommended for delays in the air.


Pilots can expect a STAR from waypoint NUKPO. Sultan Hasanuddin (WAAA) caters for all shapes and sizes with their 2 runway configuration (RWY 03/21 (3100m) and RWY 13/31 (2500m). Depending on winds, STARs for runway 03 will allows pilots to join directly onto the ILS and shoot the approach. Approaches for runway 13 will require vectoring to final. Due to high terrain to the east of the field, runway 21 utilises a procedure hold to align aircraft with the centerline. As always, if your aircraft is unable to fly holds, advise ATC on first contact.
