Hong Kong International Airport (HKG/VHHH) (Hong Kong)

Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) (IATA: HKG, ICAO: VHHH) is the principal airport serving Hong Kong. It is also known locally as Chek Lap Kok Airport.

HKIA is located on the island of Chek Lap Kok, just off the north shore of Lantau Island. It opened for commercial operations in 1998 and is an important regional trans-shipment centre, passenger hub and gateway for destinations in mainland China, East and Southeast Asia. Despite its relatively short history, the airport has already won several international "Best Airport" awards.

The airport operates around-the-clock and is capable of handling 45 million passengers and three million tonnes of cargo a year. It is the primary hub for Cathay Pacific and Dragonair, along with several other smaller airlines, including Hong Kong Express, CR Airways and Oasis Hong Kong Airlines.
