Kodiak Benny Benson State Airport (IATA: ADQ, ICAO: PADQ, FAA LID: ADQ) is a public and military use airport located four nautical miles (5 mi, 7 km) southwest of the central business district of Kodiak,[1] a city on Kodiak Island in the U.S. state of Alaska. The airport is state-owned and operated by the Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities (DOT&PF).[1] It is home to the co-located Coast Guard Air Station Kodiak and a hub for Servant Air. On April 11, 2013, the Alaska State Legislature passed SB31,[2] which renamed the facility "Kodiak Benny Benson State Airport," in honor of the designer of the Alaskan flag.
