Currituck County Airport (ICAO: KONX, FAA LID: ONX), also known as Currituck Regional Airport, is a public airport located four miles (6 km) south of the central business district (CBD) of Currituck, in Currituck County, North Carolina, USA. This general aviation airport covers 101 acres (41 ha) and has one runway.
Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, Currituck County Airport is assigned ONX by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA (which assigned ONX to Enrique Adolfo Jiménez Airport in Colón, Panama). The airport's ICAO identifier is KONX. History
Currituck Regional Airport was built by the United States Army Air Force about 1942, and was known as Barco Flight Strip. It was an emergency landing airfield for military aircraft on training flights. It was closed after World War II, and was turned over for local government use by the War Assets Administration (WAA). In later years Currituck County took over airport operations. In recent years, Currituck Regional Airport has experienced a constant increase in aircraft based at this field.
Expansion
In an attempt to improve facilities at Currituck Regional Airport, a 20-year Airport Improvement Program has been created in 2000 to identify improvements in the near, short and long term for the airport. Some of these improvements include:

- 1,500' Extension of Runway 5/23 complete
- Clear obstructions from runway approaches
- Construct new terminal building
- Phase 2 - 6-10 Years
- Phase 3 - 11-20 Years
