Rarotonga International Airport
[include1/730x20.htm]
Rarotonga International Airport (IATA: RAR, ICAO: NCRG) is the
Cook Islands' main international gateway, located in the town and
district of Avarua, Rarotonga, 3 km west of the downtown area on
the northern coast.
Because of the close proximity of the runways to the nearby roads,
it is possible to get very close to the aircraft while they are
departing and landing. Runway 08, which is at the western end of
the runway, in particular is often very popular when a large jet
is landing.
Air Rarotonga operates inter-island scheduled services
throughout the Cook Islands from this Airport. It also operates
chartered flights to French Polynesia, Niue, Samoa and Tonga.
