S. Darius and S. Girėnas Airport (S. Dariaus ir S. Girėno aerodromas) (ICAO: EYKS), also known as Aleksotas Airport (Aleksoto aerodromas), is a small airport located in Aleksotas, close to the Europa Avenue, only 3 kilometres away from the Kaunas city centre in Lithuania.
S. Darius and S. Girėnas Airport was an international airport in Kaunas. It is the oldest functioning airport in Lithuania, established in 1915, making it one of the oldest airports in Europe. Its historical importance makes it a natural host for the Lithuanian National Aviation Museum. Due to the lack of territory for further development, the commercial activities of the airport were moved to the new Kaunas International Airport in 1988. S. Darius and S. Girėnas Airport is still used for tourism purposes and air sports as well.
