## Description

Air Niugini and PNG Air connect Kavieng Airport (IATA: KVG) with Port Moresby, serving the capital of New Ireland Province at the island's northern tip. The coastal field sits just 7 feet above sea level and handles passengers along with modest belly freight. It has no dedicated cargo terminal or freighter service; the region's tuna catch is mainly processed and shipped by sea via Kavieng's port. Urgent consignments are routed through Port Moresby's Jacksons International (POM). Diving tourism and fisheries keep Kavieng a steady regional gateway.
