Hong Kong International Airport (IATA: HKG, ICAO: VHHH) is the principal airport in Hong Kong. It is colloqially known as Chek Lap Kok Airport, due to the fact that it was built on the island of Chek Lap Kok by land reclamation.

Hong Kong International Airport opened for commercial operations in 1998, replacing Kai Tak airport, and is an important regional trans-shipment centre, passenger hub and gateway for destinations in mainland China, East Asia and Southeast Asia. Despite its relatively short history, the airport has won several notable international "Best Airport" awards, although losing out to Singapore Changi Airport in the Skytrax best airport award in 2006.

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, Oasis Hong Kong Airlines and Air Hong Kong.
