Horta Airport (IATA code: HOR, ICAO code: LPHR) is an airport located in the parish of Castelo Branco, 9.5 kilometers (5.9 miles) southwest of the center of Horta, on Faial Island in the archipelago of the Azores.

Inaugurated on 24 August 1971, the airport was remodeled and reinaugurated in December 2001, in order to serve the islands of the Central Group (Terceira, Graciosa, São Jorge, Pico and Faial), as well as expanded to support domestic connectivity to Lisbon. Following the renovation, the airport was designated an international airport. Although a seasonal pattern of activity and airline movements occur at this airport, there has been a steady increase in the passenger numbers and cargo transited. In 2019 the number of passengers handled by the airport reached a peak of 260,000.

The airport has a three-story terminal building that is divided operationally, with departures and arrivals on the same floor (street-level), cafe and lounge on the first floor and runway-level departures lounge and logistics. The street-level departures and arrivals concourses are situated on opposite ends of the terminal; flight check-ins, baggage check and oversize security in the western wing, while in the east is the enclosed arrivals lounge with one baggage carousal, and car rental services. The runway-level departures lounge and arrivals is connected directly to the street-level by staircase and escalators respectively.
