Kirkenes Airport, Høybuktmoen (IATA: KKN, ICAO: ENKR) is a regional airport serving Kirkenes, a town in Finnmark county in the far north of Norway, located near the border with Russia and Finland. The airport sits approximately 15 kilometres west of Kirkenes town centre and handles both domestic and some international traffic. The airport plays a vital role in connecting this remote Arctic community to the rest of Norway and neighbouring regions. It serves as an important transport node for residents, workers in the mining industry, and travellers visiting the Barents Region. The airport also supports humanitarian and cross-border activities given its proximity to Russia. Flights primarily connect Kirkenes to Oslo and other Norwegian cities, with SAS and Widerøe historically operating key routes. The airport experiences challenging Arctic weather conditions, including heavy snowfall and polar nights, which influence operations throughout the year.
