Rarotonga International Airport (IATA: RAR, ICAO: NCRG) is the Cook Islands' main international gateway, located in the town and district of Avarua, Rarotonga, three kilometers west of the downtown area on the northern coast.
In 2003, $650,000 was spent on revamping the terminal, as well as the departure and check-in areas.[1]
An $8.5m reconstuction project commenced in 2009 to revamp and expand the existing terminal facilities. The new-look terminal was officially opened on 22 June 2010. Airlines and destinations
