## Abstract
The research examines the runway development at Rendani Airport in West Papua to determine essential strategic elements for expansion. The current 2300-meter runway at Rendani Airport serves only limited operations because it cannot accept bigger aircraft. The research fills an infrastructure gap by analyzing how a longer runway would help airlines use bigger planes and increase airport operations while boosting regional development. A SWOT analysis of runway development connects its strengths and weaknesses with its external opportunities, threats, and internal variables. The information gathered from interviews combined with field observations and secondary data sources yielded complete insights into present airport conditions. The airport benefits from its dominant position as the top regional airport, which creates substantial grounds for business progress and tourism expansion. The airport faces crucial obstacles made up of inadequacies regarding land availability, interference from local groups and persistent crosswind conditions. The research outcome suggests the airport should increase its runway length to 2500 meters and double down on safety improvements while forming a land solution strategy by uniting stakeholders with governmental backing. The recommendation involves introducing environmentally friendly operations to build Rendani Airport into a sustainable, nature-friendly aviation facility. The evidence studied shows that proper collaboration between relevant parties ensures the proper development of the airport according to its master plan design.
