Harold Lam International Airport (IATA: NCO, ICAO: NICO) (Shangean: 林秉燭國際機場) is an international airport in Kongchun, North Bay, Nakong. It is the main airport serving the Nakongese capital city of Ningcho, the surrounding North Bay region, and northern Nakong more generally. Opened in 1929 as Ning Chow South Aerodrome (later Ningcho South Airport), the airport was renamed in 1978 in honour of Harold Lam Ping-yuk, the founding Prime Minister of Nakong between 1958 and 1972.
The busiest airport in Nakong for both passenger and cargo movements, Harold Lam is the hub airport for the flag carrier Nakonair, the budget airlines Yellow Dragon Airlines and Air Fuisan, and the cargo airline Nacon Airlines. Ground connections to Ningcho city centre and other local destinations are provided by the Ningcho Area Metropolitan Railway (Metro), while a dedicated shuttle service offers a connection to Ningcho South Station on the Ningcho–Patlin high speed railway.
