The Maupiti Airport has one runway that is 900 meters long and 30 meters wide. There is a small terminal at the airport where passengers can wait for their flights and avail themselves of the services of a café and souvenir shop.

Due to the fact that the island of Maupiti is sparsely populated and not highly developed for tourism, the Maupiti Airport is not large and does not have a high volume of passengers. However, thanks to its location on a beautiful island, the Maupiti Airport is a popular spot for photography and observing the arrivals and departures of planes.
