 Passenger traffic continued to grow in 2014.Appeals to upgrade the airport to cater for the growing numbers using Miri Airport were frequently voiced.Miri Airport handles more than 4,000 flights a month, with an average of 125 aircraft landings and take-offs daily, including 62 landings for rural services; with the current airport size, arrival times for incoming flights will be delayed because they have to wait for other aircraft to depart before being able to land on the runway.
