Location
Saga, Japan
Kyushu Saga International Airport (IATA: HSG, ICAO: RJFS) is a regional airport serving Saga City and the broader Saga Prefecture in Kyushu, Japan. It handles a modest volume of passengers on domestic routes to Tokyo and select international charter and scheduled services, particularly to destinations in China and South Korea.
