Flights to Kingston
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Kingston is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Norfolk Island International Airport (NLK), 3 km (2 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 6,398 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Norfolk Island International Airport (regional) | NLK | 3 km (2 mi) | 6,398 ft | 371 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 6,398 ft, NLK handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 371 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
