Gateway to New Caledonia's North Province and mining region.

Location
Koné, New Caledonia
Koné Airport (IATA: KNQ, ICAO: NWWD) is a regional airport serving Koné, the administrative capital of New Caledonia's North Province. It provides essential air links between the remote northern territory and the main island hub of Nouméa, supporting both the local community and the nickel mining industry that dominates the region. The airport handles a modest volume of domestic traffic, primarily connecting Koné to Nouméa's Magenta Airport via short turboprop services. Its infrastructure is typical of a small regional facility, catering to the needs of government workers, mining personnel, and residents of the surrounding Hienghène and Voh areas. As Koné grows in importance as the administrative center of North Province, the airport plays an increasingly strategic role in the territorial transport network of New Caledonia.
