Shin Jinhae International Airport (IATA: SJN, ICAO: DJIA, Zhenian: 신진해국제공항), is the primary international airport serving the metropolitan area of Jinhae. Built on reclaimed land facing the Gulf of Danguk southeast of the city center and just north of the estuary of the Taimir River, it has primarily served international and long-range domestic flights to and from the metropolitan Jinhae region, replacing the aging Jinhae City Airport and Jinhae Songsan International Airport since 2005, signifying its existence as a new airport as opposed to the existing two airports.

Situated upon reclaimed land near the estuaries of the Taimir River, the airport distances itself from potential noise issues that had previously plagued both Jinhae City and Jinhae Songsan airports. Shin Jinhae International Airport is owned and operated by Shin Jinhae Ports Corporation, a public company in which the Jinhae Metropolitan Government maintains a major stake in. It has three parallel runways, two of which are 3800 meters in length, with plans to add an additional runway directly east of the third runway over reclaimed land.

As one of the largest airports in Zhenia outside the Danguk Peninsula, Shin Jinhae International Airport is also the nation's second busiest airport, serving over 78 million passengers as of 2019. It is considered a major gateway into southern Zhenia, as well as a connection point for countless international destinations. For such reasons, it is a hub or focus city for most Zhenian carriers as well as international ones, including Air Zhenia and Zhenian Airways.
