The airport commenced operation on 19 December 2014, replacing the old Sudjarwo Tjondronegoro Airport which has been closed due to the lack of land for expansion to cope with the increasing passenger demands.[1] The airport is named after Stevanus Rumbewas, a former Indonesian Navy officer who originated from Serui.[2]
