Monbetsu Airport

or , is a third class airport located southeast of Monbetsu, a city in the Hokkaidō prefecture of Japan.

MBE is the newest airport in Hokkaidō: it opened in November 1999. The airport was originally used for general aviation flights. Flights were transferred from the original Monbetsu Airport, which was located closer to the city. Air Nippon inaugurated daily service to New Chitose Airport outside Sapporo that year, and added flights to Tokyo International Airport in 2000. The Sapporo service was moved to Okadama Airport in 2001 and discontinued entirely in 2003.

Monbetsu now has only one daily flight to Tokyo, operated by All Nippon Airways. Hokkaido Air System also runs a daily service to New Chitose Airport between July and November.

The airport is 15 minutes from the city center and accessible by bus from the Monbetsu Bus Terminal.
