Akron Fulton International Airport (IATA: AKC, ICAO: KAKR, FAA LID: AKR) is a general aviation airport located in the city of Akron in Summit County, Ohio, United States. It is owned by the city of Akron.
Named for longtime manager Bain Ecarius "Shorty" Fulton and his son Bain J. "Bud" Fulton, it first opened in 1929 and has operated in several different capacities since then. Although the airport has only served general aviation for many years, it does technically have United States Customs facilities, and is therefore considered an international airport. The airport did have commercial scheduled airline service until the 1950s. It is now used for both cargo and private planes.
