Kokura Airport (小倉空港, Kokura Kūkō), previously called Kitakyūshū Airport (北九州空港, Kitakyūshū Kūkō) until 2005, was a small airport in Kokura Minami-ku, Kitakyūshū, Japan.

The runway was 1,600 m (5,249 ft) long, so only mid-sized aircraft such as the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 could use this airport, albeit with a reduced payload.

[citation needed] It is now commonly referred to as Kokura, its location, to distinguish it from the New Kitakyushu Airport (renamed Kitakyushu Airport in 2008), an offshore airport built on a man-made island in Suo nada, the most westerly part of the Seto Inland Sea.

The final scheduled flight from the airport was an MD-87 to Haneda Airport that departed before 8PM with the final flight was the MD-87 on a ferry flight to Itami Airport left before midnight of 16 March 2006.

[citation needed] As of 2013, the former airport is one of the potential sites for new JASDF facilities as part of an ongoing defense buildup.
