Langkawi International Airport (LGK) is the air gateway to the Langkawi archipelago, off the northwest coast of Peninsular Malaysia in the state of Kedah. For most holidaymakers it is the fastest way onto the island, which is otherwise reached by ferry. Malaysia Airports runs the facility.
The airport also hosts LIMA, the Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace Exhibition. This major trade show brings aircraft displays and naval vessels to the island every two years.
The airport is in Padang Matsirat, on the west side of Pulau Langkawi, the main island. Pantai Cenang, the island's popular beach strip, is roughly 8 km south, a drive of around 15 minutes. Kuah, the island's main town and ferry hub, lies on the southeast coast and takes a little longer to reach by road.
A single terminal handles both domestic and international passengers. The long runway can take large jets, which is also why it suits the air shows held during LIMA. Expect a compact, easy-to-navigate building with the usual check-in counters, shops and food outlets.
Flights to Kuala Lumpur make up the core of the schedule, with frequent departures through the day. Airlines serving Langkawi include AirAsia and Malaysia Airlines, and other carriers operate domestic and regional services.

Island-hopping trips and mangrove tours leave from jetties around the coast, and Kuah is known for duty-free shopping.
