Khon Kaen Airport (Thai: ท่าอากาศยานขอนแก่น (IATA: KKC, ICAO: VTUK)) is in Khon Kaen, Thailand.

Serving Khon Kaen, a city strategically important for the region's infrastructure both geographically and economically, the airport was upgraded to international standards in 2005 with the opening of a new terminal. It is a few kilometres west of downtown.

The airport is equipped with one jet bridge. The departures hall is on the second floor, while the arrivals hall is on the first floor as well as a foreign-exchange kiosk. The terminal is connected to a large parking lot.

It takes at least 20 minutes to Khon Kaen city centre, and approximately two hours to nearby provinces such as Maha Sarakham, Kalasin, and Udon Thani.
