Pūko‘o Airport serves Kaunakakai, US.
Pūko‘o Airport (US-4657), located in Kaunakakai, Moloka‘i, was proposed in 1947 as a Class I airport. It was intended to serve as an emergency airstrip and to encourage recreational inter-island flying for small personal and charter planes, particularly for those traveling between Moloka‘i and Maui. The Civil Aeronautics Administration (CAA) Region IX approved the project in the 1947 National Airport Plan; however, funding for the airport was never approved, and it never received official status from the Territorial government, indicating it was never constructed or operational. Therefore, its classification as "CLOSED" likely refers to the fact that the proposed project was never realized. The identifier "US-4657" appears to be a misinterpretation in searches, frequently referencing flight numbers rather than an airport code.
