Traditionally, most western travelers used to arrive at the territory by ferry from Hong Kong. This situation has slightly changed since the opening of Macau's own international airport in 1995 and since it became a regional hub for low-cost carriers, thanks to its relatively low landing fees.

The new Macau International Airport was opened in November 1995. The airport's runway was built on a strip of reclaimed land in the sea, adjacent to Taipa Island, where the main terminal and air traffic control facilities are located. It is a modern, efficient and quite comfortable airport, even though it is not very big.
Less than twenty airlines fly to and from Macau, offering direct flights to several cities in Mainland China, Taiwan, Korea and Southeast Asia, from where you can catch connecting flights to different airports in Asia, Europe or America.
