Tri-County Airport (ICAO: KASJ, FAA LID: ASJ) is a public use airport located nine nautical miles (10 mi, 17 km) west of the central business district of Ahoskie, in Hertford County, North Carolina, United States. It is owned by the Tri-County Airport Authority.[1] This airport is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility.[2]

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned ASJ by the FAA[1] but has no assignment from the IATA[3] (which assigned ASJ to Amami Oshima Airport in Amami Ōshima, Japan).[4] The airport's ICAO identifier is KASJ.[5]
