This is the only international airport in the world that does not have its runway lit. The airport is closed at night and is used by island residents to host festivals, etc. It only has flights to Fiji operated by Fiji Airways about three or four times a week. Hence, I've decided to change it back to a medium airport because it does not really function as a major hub.
