Southern Taiwan's primary international gateway serving Kaohsiung.

Opened

Location
Kaohsiung, Taiwan
Kaohsiung International Airport (IATA: KHH, ICAO: RCKH) is the second busiest airport in Taiwan, serving the greater Kaohsiung metropolitan area in the south of the island. It handles a mix of domestic and international traffic, connecting Kaohsiung to destinations across Asia including Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, and mainland China. The airport is located in the Xiaogang District of Kaohsiung City, relatively close to the urban core, which makes ground access convenient but also limits expansion potential. It has undergone modernization efforts to improve capacity and passenger experience. As Taiwan's southern hub, KHH plays a strategic role in distributing air traffic away from the busier Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport near Taipei, supporting regional economic activity and tourism in southern Taiwan.
Terminals
The airport operates with two passenger terminals: Terminal 1 handling international flights and Terminal 2 serving domestic routes.
Getting to & from
The airport is directly served by the Kaohsiung MRT Red Line with a dedicated station, providing efficient rail access to downtown Kaohsiung.
Airlines here
Major carriers operating at KHH include China Airlines, EVA Air, Mandarin Airlines, Uni Air, and various international carriers from Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia.
Notable facts
  • The Kaohsiung MRT Red Line runs directly through the airport terminal, making it one of few airports in Asia with a metro station integrated into the building.
